About Motorhouse Hire

Market-leading vehicle sourcing, coordination, and support. From period authenticity to custom hero cars, we deliver production excellence.

Built on experience. Trusted by production.

With dedicated operating bases in Berkshire, Bristol, Cardiff and Bolton, Motorhouse Hire is a long-established specialist vehicle supplier for the film and television industry, with a reputation built on reliability, industry knowledge and a hands-on approach. Since the 1970’s, we’ve been helping productions source the right vehicles for the right brief — from everyday street vehicles to distinctive classics, specialist models and hard-to-find options.

We understand that in film and television, every detail matters. Vehicles are not just practical assets — they help shape character, setting, authenticity and story. That’s why we work closely with productions to provide a service that is efficient, flexible and responsive from first enquiry through to delivery.

The "need to know" about Motorhouse Hire’s vehicle services

What type of vehicles can you provide?

Motorhouse Hire can source a wide range of vehicles for film and television productions, from everyday modern cars and vans through to period vehicles, classic cars, motorcycles, buses, commercial vehicles, emergency-style vehicles and more specialist options.

Rather than limiting productions to a fixed online catalogue, we work with you to understand the setting, era, brief and visual requirements, then help curate suitable vehicles for your shoot.

Whether you need hero vehicles, background traffic, action vehicles, matching multiples or something more unusual, our team can advise on availability, suitability and practical production requirements.

View FAQ
Can you source very specific or rare vehicles?

Yes. Motorhouse Hire can help source highly specific, unusual and rare vehicles for film and television productions. Whether the brief calls for a particular make, model, year, colour, condition, era or on-screen character, our team will work with you to understand the creative and practical requirements, then identify suitable options through our trusted network of vehicle owners, drivers and industry contacts.

From classic cars and period vehicles to specialist, modified or hard-to-find vehicles, we can support productions that need more than a standard hire option.

View FAQ
Do you work internationally?

Yes. Motorhouse Hire works internationally, supporting film and television productions across the UK, Europe and beyond. Recently our team has supplied and coordinated vehicle hire for productions in Belgium, Germany, Italy, Malta, Iceland, Greece, Portugal, Kenya, Jamaica and many more, helping clients source the right vehicles, drivers and support wherever filming takes place.

Whether you need picture vehicles, specialist transport, project coordination, custom builds or workshop support, we can help manage the process for overseas shoots as well as UK-based productions.
