2003 Austin Mini Cooper S | Cleator Moor, Cumbria

A 2003 Mini Cooper S, the supercharged, sporting version of the first BMW-era Mini hatchback. It is known for quick, agile handling and retro styling, with a supercharger whine that nods to the original car. This car is finished in grey with a black interior, a restrained pairing that lets the Cooper S details stand out: the bonnet scoop and the twin central exhausts. It seats four, and its short, upright body is easy to place in shot or beside a venue entrance. Photography, fashion and editorial shoots get a compact car with clean lines and room around it in frame. Advertising and music video crews can use it for city streets and tight locations, while film and TV productions set in the 2000s get a period-right hatchback. It also makes a neat wedding or personal hire. The car is based in Cleator Moor, Cumbria.
