Looks like a 3CII to me but I would need more pics to have a better idea of what period and the serial number for being certain. I don't think it's a 3CIII but it could be a very late 3CII.

It's a MK2 but the rear boom looks like it's longer and may be from a 3D. The dipper looks different too but it's not the right shape or length of a D although it's heavier built than a standard C. Perhaps it's just the camera angle playing tricks?

It looks like a MK11, the dipper may be looking due to photo, the bucket is rolled in and in long vegetation so the thin end of the dipper might be near enough on the ground. When did the fuel filler get moved from under the side cover to in front of the windscreen?

I think again it's the camera angle and it's the end of the far side of the loader boom that we see pete. The side door is MK2 and stops short to the slope of the mudguard. The MK3 door shuts tight to the slope and has a white part of the cab adjoined to the top of it. IYKWIM...
