Paul Wade Arbuthnott (born ???, died ???) was a British racing driver.

In 1956, Arbuthnott - along with Thornton Arrowsmith Wellesley and John Laurence Berwick - were entered into the East German Grand Prix by the state-owned British Commonwealth Motorsport Association. The decision to send three unknown amateurs to Rostock was met with much scrutiny and there were several rumours as regards to the three being involved in an arms smuggling exercise. None of the three managed to escape qualifying and nothing has been heard from them since.
