I agree with Gartmore's comments on adjusting the levels.
In no. 1, if you had taken it from a foot further left, the hanging light bulb would not have been covering up the edge of the 'S' which I find slightly irksome - it might even then have worked as a small and slightly odd exclamation mark. I agree with Michael's suggestion to crop out the 'Malan' sign.
On No. 2 - a tiny crop on the LHS would get rid of the white line in the top left (a road sign?)

You were a long way north!
I particularly like No. 2, and would like to see it cropped even more to a letter-box, i.e. a little bit more off both top and bottom.

Ditto for me as well. Can you also go for a bit more contrast in the sky.May be my laptop but the castle is a bit dark, needs a lift in the shadows so we can see some detail.

I can't remember the precise numbers, but when I brought my ME in the late 1970s it was pretty expensive in terms of hours worked to purchase, much more than a K500 or even a K50 today. Mind you, it was built like a brick XXXX house - a lovely piece of precision engineering.
