Blast from the past still available on EBay - German Castrol

[cammyfive79]

I was thinking back to my first days lurking here in the early 2000s when “German Castrol” was the unicorn tears in a bottle. Found this on eBay just now……. Aside from the museum grade pricing, I wonder if this seller literally kept this stored for the last 15-20 years or what the deal was.

I want to buy then drain it after 1000 miles and post here that I did so “because cheap insurance”.

I bet it's distilled from the tears of crying unicorns.

If it's not you then I wouldn't know who.

It’s a crazy price for it but it would be nice to have an extra bottle for nostalgia purposes

I remember getting that on sale at Autozone for $2 a quart. I ran it in a 2V 5.4 Ford

 

[ChiTDI]

An elf bought it.

I still have a shelf full of the stuff I bought for my LS1 Camaro before I quit driving it. $179.96 with coupon? LOL. I guess it cures C19 and cancer, as well as removes unsightly wrinkles.

You can message them with an offer...and they can respond or counter your offer.

OK. Message sent. If it works out, I am going to do God's work and do VOA, following with using it in BMW.

I sent a message earlier too asking if he would accept an offer. I bet this guy is freaking out that his listing went viral. Haha.

I hope you get it. There is no one more deserving. Castrol should have made you honorary A3/B4 0W-30 ambassador years ago .

Actually, what would be fun is if HPL / LSJ would run the same test suite on it that they ran on the Mobil 1 products.
