I would suggest x201s for Many reasons. You can find it without hdd on ebay

it just works.
The x201 works great.
I used one for about 3 years, and the beatings continued until
everything worked perfectly.
Mark Kettenis applied the same pressure to the x220.
And Mike Larkin to the x230.
But the general rule is that the upper-class Thinkpads work the best,
first of all because their BIOS are written by Team-A at Lenovo,
secondly because we fixed things for ourselves.
One notable exception: none of the pre-x220 touchscreens work, they use
the old Wacom serial protocol that lacks a working driver in modern
OpenBSD. And of course there's the various power/heat/battery issues
that are gradually getting fixed.
But overall, my x201t works great under OpenBSD. If you want small +
light, don't get the tablet model, and IMHO get at least the x220 or newer.
Of course, none of us are actually answering your original question :-/.
