Without *knowing*, I might still speculate a bit, starting top left:

1) Most "final" TRF211X version, can see that from the gearbox casing, front bumper, reinforcement between gearbox/damper stay

2) Eearlier TRF211X version, slipper seems to be Super Astute spec, still some kind of prototype gearbox casing,.

3) (center car): Probably also early TRF211X version. Front damper mount seems to be of the type used at the 1991 Euros/Worlds on the Astute cars.

4) Left: Astute from 1991 Worlds and/or the Euros. 30 degree front kickup plate (?) Same proto gearbox as on the first 211X (?)

5) Right: Probably a bit earlier works Astute, I've seen those aluminium parts before, I just can't remember where/when. Original Astute front bulkhead, that's why I guess this one is the oldest one.

So, let me know how close I was
