I can't advise without knowing your budget or the price condition & history of each car in relation to market values and competition. Not a lot between them spec wise. Im in UK so unlikely to be able to advise re price to pay.

Personally once satisfied re spec,mileage, price & history I'd look at primarily condition. Bear in mind cost for 4 new tyres an inspection 2 new discs and some tidying can add up.

One comment- on option1 bear in mind that I believe
4/01 was the change point from 4:3 to 16:9 screens albeit you cqan retro upgrade a 4:3 to 16:9.
Do check for pixelation on this as well as on dash.

Selling your 4:3 and/or a Mk3 Nav would fund in part the cost of a 16:9 and/or a Mk 4 NAV- avoid dodgy foreign ebay items unless from reputable sellersto avoid buyng defective items or from ebay fraudsters.

Condition is all except when the price must relect any issues- if not walk away.
