Castrol has released a viral clip to celebrate the 40th anniversary of its GTX fuel brand.

Running across markets including Australia, Malaysia and Thailand, the clip, which has premiered online, is the first phase of a tactical campaign to generate awareness and buzz of the fuel’s credentials and longevity.

The film celebrates the evolution of one car over a period of 40 years. Despite changing hands several times, the vehicle retains its functionality because of the Castrol GTX fuel.
