all are limited numbers compared to standard models - the manual X300 XJR is also a rare one.
Why not look for a s.w.b Series 1 or 2 XJ12. All the car's you've listed will be hard to find, even more so in great condition.

Have you decided what you'll be using it for yet? Any personal views on why you want one to make the decision easier?

Have you ever considered the ultra rare Daimler Century? That is a special edition X300 which is fitted with all the toys and a V12 or a 4.0 6 pot engine. There were only 200 made, 100 of each engine type. More info here: 1996 Daimler Century International Register
