I have driven a '72 V-12 and a '67, both 4 speeds. Steering was sort of overboosted on the later car, seemed like the thing was a lot heavier, though I don't think that they are that different. That V-12 is plenty fast though.

My father drove a '68 XKE as a DD for 5 years, it was dead solid reliable, replaced the fuel pump when it started making noise, not when it stopped making noise. When I think about it, the V-12 never started giving him trouble until he started parking it to drive something with AC that worked

Toggle vs rocker switches did not make much difference to me

I have seen C and D types, never even sat in one
