Wapping Carpark, a film location with a prime London view.
We’re thrilled to announce the launch of the official SL YouTube channel, and what better way to hit the accelerator than with our very first short film – Seatbelt Kevin! – Lights, Camera, Acceleration.
Created as a playful parody film about our action vehicle offering, the SL team rolled up their sleeves to script, film and act in the piece. With a small budget and a big imagination, we set out to showcase the fun side of what we do while putting our fleet of action vehicles for hire front and centre.
What’s Seatbelt Kevin! all about?
The film follows a young lad (played by Euan Tanner Fenton) sent to collect an action vehicle for a shoot. He’s met by Sarah, who takes him on a tour through a super-secure underground carpark stacked with iconic vehicles – all booked for high-profile productions.
Among the stars of the show:
Porsch T90
Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class
Aston Martin DBS
VW Camper
Each vehicle is revealed with cinematic flair, but as Sarah leads him to the crown jewel, our hero has his eye on another prize entirely... reminding viewers that SL can always source the right vehicle for every production.
Why we made it
We wanted to create something light-hearted to celebrate the creativity of our community and highlight how versatile our fleet really is. It’s proof that, whether you’re a location manager, scout, production company or location owner, our action vehicles for film and TV add that extra spark of production value to your shoot.
Meet the team
A huge thank you to Jay Flaxman, Joseph Sciberras, Ed Curtis, Euan Tanner Fenton and Saskia Roberts for their talent, time and energy in bringing Seatbelt Kevin! to life.

How SL Brokers Action Vehicles for Productions
Silverstein Locations is one of the only film location companies in the UK to offer a truly comprehensive acton vehicle service.
Our founder, Ian Silverstein, is a lifelong car enthusiast with over thirty years’ experience in the industry. He’s built a broad network of supercar, classic car, everyday vehicle and aircraft owners, giving production companies unrivalled access to vehicles that elevate both photography and film.
We understand that sourcing the perfect action vehicle in the UK can be even more complicated than scouting for locations. Traditional rental companies rarely provide vehicles that are camera-ready, and the right stunt car or period-correct motor isn’t always easy to track down. That’s why we’ve built a seamless action vehicle service designed to eliminate those frustrations and keep your production moving forward.
When you hire action vehicles with Silverstein Locations, you can expect:
A diverse range of vehicles ready for filming opportunities – from modern icons like the Aston Martin DBS and Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class, through to unique heroes such as the Porsch T90 or vintage favourites like the VW Camper.
Dedicated vehicle scouting tailored to your brief.
Efficient, nationwide delivery and collection.
Fully insured, compliant and camera-ready vehicles.
Collaborative access to our trusted network of vehicle owners.
Direct communication — no endless email chains.
A friendly, flexible team who understand the demands of production.
These vehicles are showcased in our launch film, Seatbelt Kevin! – Lights, Camera, Acceleration, where we have given audiences a playful introduction to just how wide-ranging and adaptable our action vehicle offering really is.
From stunt-ready cars to classic collectables, we connect you directly with the right vehicles and owners, while handling the details that make them set-ready. It’s a service designed for location managers, scouts, production companies and location owners who want their shoots to run smoother, faster and better.
