Probably a 10 or 11.
The second one looks like a KDP18 or KDP19.
I'd say the 3rd one is an Imperial model.
Neil, I'd go for it. At least you'd save it form potentially being sent to the krusher. the racks look in very good shape.
The 1st one.
Is a 12 series. If it were closer I'd be on it! Unfortunately, it's far from me. Definitely get it Neil! There are other members here with repair information on these, but they tend to do a very good job, and fast. They lack and internal water heating capability though, so for best performance either crank your water heater up all the way or have a small booster heater near the machine.

Here's hoping....
I emailed the seller yesterday but haven't heard anything yet. Trust me, I will prevail upon the cumulative wisdom here to get it back in service if I manage to snag it.
A small booster heater would definitely be in order. My water heater is set to 145 degrees and although the pipes are insulated it's a long run from the heater to the kitchen.

HOT WATER FOR THE OLD KA DW
145 is hot enough if you run the kitchen faucet first for this machine. This machine goes through the cycle so fast that if your hot water pipes are reasonably well insulated the machine should work great. Always remember the hotter the water the more damage it and the detergent will do to the dishes, and mechanical parts of the machine. And the newer detergents work in cooler water anyway.

I got the KD 12!
I got it as part of a two-for-one deal.
