(14th November, 2023) – 

Jon Murden, Chief Executive of the National Motor Museum, said that looking after the Museum’s collection of nearly 300 vehicles is a passion, but calling on the support of other experts in automotive maintenance makes practical and economic sense. He added: “This new partnership is a sound investment for both the Museum and its magnificent collection of motor cars, motorcycles and vans.”

Dan Morgan, sales and operations director of Lucas Oil, said 
“The agreement recognises that using additives to protect such a high profile fleet offers many practical benefits.”

Financial Director Nia Lloyd-Williams added:
“We hope that the partnership will go on to provide many mutual benefits at many more shows and other motor industry events in the future.”

The Museum workshop already uses a range of Lucas Oil additives. These help to protect the engines of the precious fleet. Safeguard Ethanol Fuel Conditioner has been protecting many of the engines and their fuel system components from damage caused by the high ethanol content of modern fuels. Road trips for some of the vehicles are few and far between. Fuel Stablizer added to the fuel tanks will protect against fuel octane degradation, which can cause problems when engines are eventually re-started.
