Lakeland Motor Museum wins praise from Castrol on 120th anniversary

Published: 26/09/2019

A small selection of around 200 items from the museum’s vast collection were gathered into one place for the purposes of the photographs and have since been re-distributed around the museum into each item’s original location – making for a fun game of “Spot the Castrol” for visiting children.

The museum’s Operations Manager Chris Lowe, says, “Castrol is such an iconic motoring brand so it’s really satisfying to see so many related items gathered together here at the Lakeland Motor Museum. These items have been collected from various sources and given to us by many different donors over a 40 year period, demonstrating just how synonymous Castrol is with the evolution of motoring.”

Castrol’s European marketing manager Adrian Brabazon, comments, “It’s great to see the amazing range of Castrol memorabilia brought together at the Lakeland Motor Museum and to see Castrol’s anniversary being celebrated. We’re developing lubricants for the hybrid and electric cars of today and tomorrow, so we are very much looking forward to the next 120 years.”
