Got excited when I saw the title but those British Indians do nothing for me V/r Shawn

There's a substantial premium for the "Indian" name on an otherwise fairly straightforward 3-speed "light roadster" type bike. The green also appears to have the fenders of a 1950s Schwinn rather than original fenders. They're good bikes, but you're paying a lot extra for the Indian name.

Nothing. They are just regular three speeds.

English Racer is a term used by "oldtimers" for these lighter weight British bikes that mostly showed up post war after tariffs were lifted
