Booked my car in for a MOT
Booked my car in for a MOT, phoned back later and found out it had failed, Ben told me what was needed and a quoted a price. He even explained they do a scheme where you can pay in installments, having agreed to that the work was completed to a great standard and I can't fault them. Top lads.
Fantastic customer service
Fantastic customer service provided by branch manager Ben. Car had a service, I got a clear read through of what work is needed, honesty on cost, and booked in for it to get done. A standard as to how to provide service, that man.
Top rate service
I needed an urgent tyre replacement and despite being incredibly busy they squeezed me in; on a Sunday! The branch manager, Ben provided exceptional customer service. Friendly and professional. Top rate service, way beyond my expectations.

Solid Honest Hardworking Team
I recently popped into to Formula One to get assistance removing some tires. The team could see it was a small job and got straight to work.
They offered some sound advice and a swift turnaround all while juggling multiple customers.
They were a good solid honest hardworking team.

Great help getting my car sorted out. Now my go to garage. Multiple times they were able to fix things so the others weren't.
Highly recommended!
Great service by Ben and team
Great service by Ben and team. Would have been 5 stars had they not accidentally locked keys in car whilst we were almost there to pick car up. Mistakes happen and they stayed open later to we could go back and collect spare key. All good would recommend
