Angus and Julia Stone use a sweet little 850 in a their clip. It features throughout with views from just about every angle including inside. Very nice, and the music isn't awful either :)

An interview with Angus Stone in one of the music magazines:-

Interviewer
I read just before that you actually nearly died in a car crash?! What happened there?!

Angus Stone
Oh yeah! I bought a 1959 mini, and it was going to be the car that I would use to commute out to Shangri-La every day. One night after the studio, we jumped in the car and we were driving along back to Venice Beach on the PCH. Along that strip, there’s lots of restaurants that rich people go to drink and then jump in their cars. We were fanging along – probably going around 70/80 miles an hour in this little car with no seat belts – and this drunk driver pulled out in front of us! It all happened so quick. We just started spinning. We did a 180 and ended up on the other side of the freeway. All these cars are flying past us! It was definitely one of those close calls!

All of a sudden I'm a fan. :D

So that was most likely the car they were in? I at best thought it was a prop used to add some production value to the clip. He keeps good company :)
