I'm away from my references, but I believe this was Thierfelder? Without wishing to offer unqualified support for his preference, it does show that at least one established Zerstoerer ace did not have any high opinion of the 210 series.
Graham:

Could You tell the sourse of this info? Do You know when did Thierfelder test Me210? Summer 1942? Together with Hptm. Zimmermann and Oblt. Tratt while with II./ZG2?
