Police and emergency vehicles for film and TV

Police and emergency vehicles are considered here for agreed replica or prop use in a production. Markings, visible lights and public-facing presentation need planning with the location team. A static incident scene differs from a moving sequence. Explain what the camera must show and where the vehicle will wait between takes, so the supplied option can be checked against those needs. 94 listings make up this Police / Emergency page, dating from 1961 to 2021; look at the individual years when building a selection for a dated location or character. Modern and American lead the category mix for these entries; exploring those choices can widen a shortlist when the script leaves the exact model open. The selection’s leading colours are white, black/white and black; use them for an initial comparison with the scene, then take a closer look at the individual vehicles. The photographs on one listing come from the owner.

Crime drama, soaps, comedies, commercials and music videos all need police cars. The right one tells the audience the year, the country and the type of policing before a line is spoken. CarSeen lists 94 police and emergency vehicles for film, TV and commercial hire, from 1960s and 1970s British panda cars to modern liveried patrol cars, American cruisers, ambulances and fire engines. Browse below, then send a brief and we'll confirm availability, livery and how each vehicle can be used. Read police car hire for filming for the planning questions.
