This catalogue entry records a 1989 Suzuki Samurai SJ413 in blue, a 4x4, from the 1980s.

1980s on screen

Weekend departures in an eighties setting can begin at the house, using the loading and greetings to convey the journey before any travelling action is filmed. The exact point within the eighties matters when combining vehicles with wardrobe, and reference images can help keep the different departments working to the same date. A supermarket or shopping-street scene needs attention to the signs behind the car, since modern lettering can stand out even when the vehicle choice is appropriate.

Possible roles in a production

A work-related 4x4 scene can use loading and unloading as practical business, provided the exact props and their handling are checked for the supplied vehicle. Outdoor clothing and carried equipment should belong to the scripted visit, avoiding a stock set of props added only because the vehicle is labelled off-road. A rural arrival can give an off-road-labelled vehicle a clear purpose, without assuming that the supplied car is suitable for every surface the location offers.
