Does anyone have any pictures of GP 10 when owned, and preferably driven by Sir Malcolm Campbell?

Aren't there some images of this car in the "Life with the Speed King" book Steve?

It looks similar to the one he drove in the 1930 Ulster TT (pictured on p35 of "The Ulster Vintage Car Club book of the Ulster TT")

This linked photo is the only one I have managed to find of the car with Sir Malcolm at the wheel.

Is the GP10 that appeared at Goodwood in 2011 first registered in the UK on May 7th 1931 with a 5128 cc engine really the same car or did Sir Malcolm transfer the registration to a later Mercedes ?

I believe the registration has always been with the same car. Only time I got my rear end in it, it was waiting for the engine to be put back in.................
