One of my colleagues is under the impression that the new FnF is being filmed in Southend?

From Wiki:

"Pre-production had begun by April 2011, and principal photography began in London, England in July 2012. Filming locations also include the Canary Islands and Glasgow, Scotland."


"Filming began on July 30, 2012, in London, England,[17][18][19] and Shepperton Studios in Surrey, part of the Pinewood Studios group.[20] Lin was unable to obtain permission to shoot an action sequence at Piccadilly Circus involving an exploding oil tanker, and so a replica of the landmark was built at Shepperton.[21] Shooting also occurred on Spain's Canary Islands including the island of Tenerife. Filming had been intended to take place in Marseille, France, but was relocated to the islands to take advantage of a larger tax rebate (38%) that was estimated to lower filming costs by $20 million.[22]

Stunt and car chase scenes began filming on location in Glasgow on August 29, 2012, and are scheduled to conclude on September 16, 2012. The shoot took place entirely at night and involved approximately 250 crew, but none of the central cast. Sets were built on site for the scenes including a large car showroom.[23][24] Filming is also scheduled to take place at the former Royal Air Force base RAF Bentwaters in late August 2012 until early September 2012."

I heard about the Scotland filming. Can't wait.

You almost had me? You never had me - you never had your car... Granny shiftin' not double clutchin' like you should. You're lucky that hundred shot of NOS didn't blow the welds on the intake! You almost had me?

I too used to say this - until I thought to count. I'm not sure they ever change more than 3 times~ per car, in any of the movies.

He was actually pretty good in fast5, best thing in the movie actually. He is back as the same character so think I will give this one a shot too.
