Motul was one of the first brands to launch a dedicated classic oil range back in 2008. These dedicated products with adapted detergent levels to better suit old engines, cover Pre-War vehicles up to ‘Youngtimers’ (also known as Modern Classics in the USA).
Modern Classics (Youngtimers) are the future
Cars from the 1980s to 1990, with a lower level of investment required compared to earlier vintages, have become increasingly collectible and some specialists consider that the Modern Classic/Youngtimer market began when manufacturers started to replace chrome with plastic. Owners of these cars are typically young men under 40 who prefer to maintain their cars in the “Do-It Yourself” way, and who fully immerse themselves in this retro world.
Motul’s never-ending quest for innovation and passion for performance has now led to the development of two engine oils, which deliver unrivaled protection and superb functionality for classic and vintage engines. Suitable for genuine or rebuilt engines, CLASSIC EIGHTIES 10W-40 is a semi-synthetic multigrade engine oil specially designed for Modern Classic and Youngtimer vehicles from the 1980s fitted with 4-stroke engines, fueled by either Gasoline or Diesel, naturally aspirated, supercharged or turbocharged, injection or carburetor. These semi-synthetic formulas feature a high-Zinc (ZDDP) content for protection and Molybdenum for performance. Its unique formula, reinforced with synthetic base oils, provides excellent cold flow properties to prevent engine wear during start-ups and offers excellent cold-flow properties. The unique additives package also brings excellent long-term storage protection for those periods when driving just for fun just isn’t possible.
