In order that I don’t drop the same clanger again, please could you explain the perceived difference between a P2 and a P3?

The pictures suggest only P3 had wheel trim rings, and maybe bigger (but still diddy) rear lights, but not confirmed. And it says only visible differences between P3 60 and 75 were numbers within grille and boot badges. So which P2 do we fancy?
