Film & TV Car Hire in Crawley — South East Productions at Your Service
Crawley's location between Gatwick Airport (LGW) and London makes it one of the most strategically positioned production hubs in the South East. Pinewood Studios is around 35 miles north, Shepperton Studios around 30 miles, and the area's diverse backdrops — from the South Downs National Park to Wakehurst Place's atmospheric gardens and Ashdown Forest's open heathland — provide extraordinary on-location variety. Our Ferrari 812 GTS, Lamborghini Aventador, and Rolls-Royce fleet arrives camera-ready, with flexible call times and on-set support available for any production in West Sussex or beyond.
Film & TV Production Fleet — Crawley
The most cinematic vehicles in West Sussex — built for screen impact.
Ferrari 812 GTS
640 bhp naturally aspirated V10, aggressive aerodynamic package, and a visual presence that commands the screen. The Performante's angles are genuinely photogenic from every approach — hero car status guaranteed.
LaFerrari
Ferrari's hybrid hypercar — 950 bhp, extraordinary proportions, and a story that makes it compelling on screen. One of only ~500 built, the LaFerrari commands immediate attention and production credibility wherever it appears in West Sussex.
Ferrari 812 GTS
800 bhp naturally aspirated V12 convertible — the most powerful open-top Ferrari ever made. A compelling production vehicle for fashion, automotive, and high-end advertising shoots requiring a statement open-top car against West Sussex's landscapes.

Why Productions Choose Us in West Sussex
Experience, reliability, and the vehicles that make scenes.
Production-Experienced Drivers
Our drivers understand production environments: call times, safety briefings, camera car positioning, and the patience required for takes. They work with your crew, not around them.
Production Insurance Arranged
We source specific production insurance for each shoot — covering the vehicle as a prop, as a driving feature, and for on-set static use. We never supply vehicles for production on standard hire policies.
West Sussex Locations Knowledge
We know South Lodge Hotel, Tilgate Park, Nostell Priory, the Crawley Old Town Quarter, and the city's most photogenic streets. We can advise on location suitability for specific vehicles and assist with pre-shoot recces.

Film & TV Locations Near Crawley
Crawley sits at the centre of a rich filming area — from atmospheric heritage estates to open countryside and urban Gatwick backdrops.
Wakehurst Place
Wakehurst Place, managed by the Royal Botanic Gardens (Kew), sits just 6 miles east of Crawley in the High Weald AONB. Its walled gardens, woodland rides, and Victorian mansion house have featured in numerous productions seeking an authentic English country estate aesthetic. A Ferrari or Bentley parked on the curved gravel approach makes for a striking establishing shot.
Ashdown Forest
Ashdown Forest, 20 miles east of Crawley, provides wide-open heathland backdrops ideal for action sequences, chase scenes, and atmospheric establishing shots. The forest's distinctive ridgeline roads and exposed hilltop views have been used in commercials and drama productions seeking a cinematic rural feel without the distance of Scotland or Wales.
Gatwick & South East Urban Locations
The area around Gatwick Airport offers modern architectural backdrops — terminal approaches, multi-storey carparks, and business district settings at Manor Royal. Combined with the contrast of Crawley Old Town's historic quarter and St Peter's Church (dating from the 12th century), the area provides production teams with remarkable urban-heritage variety within a few square miles.

Crew parking guidance and delivery logistics are confirmed in advance.
How close is Crawley to Pinewood and Shepperton Studios?
Pinewood Studios (Iver Heath) is approximately 35 miles north of Crawley — around 45 minutes via the M25. Shepperton Studios is about 30 miles away. We regularly supply vehicles to productions working across both studios, with Crawley-based delivery and early call times accommodated.
Do you provide production insurance?
Our standard hire insurance covers the vehicle throughout the shoot. For productions requiring additional coverage, we can advise on production insurance arrangements and work with your production accountant to confirm the appropriate level of protection. Road closure and filming permit support is available on request.
Can we keep the vehicle overnight between shooting days?
Yes — overnight holds at a reduced daily rate are available for multi-day shoots. Vehicles can remain on set or be returned to a secure location overnight — confirmed at the booking stage based on your production schedule and locations near Crawley.

No — Crawley has no Clean Air Zone. There are no emission-related restrictions for any of our vehicles in or around the area, including at Gatwick Airport. If your production travels into London, our fleet is ULEZ-compliant throughout.

For period and heritage settings (Wakehurst Place, Nymans), Rolls-Royce and Bentley models provide timeless elegance. For modern action or commercial work, Ferrari 812 GTS, Lamborghini Aventador, and McLaren 720S deliver the drama. We'll advise on the best match for your brief.
