It may not sound familiar to you, but it has history. The Black Arrow is inspired by the Thunderbolt that set a land speed record in 1930. For this, it used two V12 engines and sported a polished aluminum body that, being difficult to see in the Bonneville salt flats, was painted with a large black arrow with a yellow circle on the side. And this same color combination can be seen with yellow inserts on the bumpers or on the grill.

Nor can we ignore the subtle yellow circle under the iconic Spirt of Ecstacy hood ornament. However, there are other decorative elements that give entity to the most powerful Wraith of all. The body degrades its tone to go from aluminum at the front to black at the rear, all complemented by yellow accents. For the occasion they have chosen the Celebration Silver and Black Diamond shades with a top coat of lacquer on glass.
