Golden Arrow was built in Britain for Major Henry Seagrave to challenge the Land Speed Record From from Ray Keech.

On 11th March 1929 Henry Seagrave, set a new flying mile record at 231.45mph, on Daytona Beach. The car was powered by a W12 Aero Engine producing 925bhp.

Due an unrelated accident on Daytona Beach, 

the beach was closed and no further record attempts to achieve a higher speed were made and sadly the car never ran again.

The car now resides at Beaulieu Motor Museum
