There are some nice colour images of that aircraft (W.Nr.170056) fitted with the FuG 218 'Neptun' radar.
I hope nobody paid too much for that rather dodgy black and white one

Wasn't that one a coloured in photo shop one?

There were a series of color photos taken of V056 when it was being evaluated by Allied personnel and Luftwaffe assistants. It seems that some B&W copies were made over the years (in publications and scheisters at auction sites)

By the way, note the unfinished metal on the starboard intake. This indicates the engine assembly had been replaced at some point after leaving the factory, as the new engines were installed unpainted.

Can you imagine what that A-2a/U2 would be worth today, had they saved it?

There is a nice write up in Luftwaffe im Focus #3 about the "landing" of the bomber Me 262 above. Evidently there were 2 Luftwaffe pilots prone in the nose as well as the pilot.
