Formula One Autocentres - Salisbury Reviews 77

1st class service from start to finish ,good prices as well

I’ve popped in a couple of times with things I’ve needed checked out, on both occasions Rob has been super helpful, squeezed me in to have a look at the car and then shown me the issues. Can’t thank him enough! Brilliant customer service and always happy to help, fab team!

Bought 4 new tyres through Black Circles and chose Salisbury F1 Centre to fit them. Never been there before but all went very smoothly and happy with the service received. Great communication and the guys were very friendly and helpful, in fact, my battery died when I went to collect the car (it has done this a couple of times before, not the garage’s fault) but the kind gentleman who fitted the tyres (sorry, I did not get his name) brought his own car round to jump start mine, which I really appreciated. Thank you very much for all your help and advice! I would recommend this company.

I am very happy with the quality of service provided by Ryan and the team. They have serviced my Fiat 500 for the last couple of years and they take a pride in their work.

Really helpful and informative. I drove over some rubbish in the road that had fallen from a skip, this knocked the bottom cover of my car causing it to hang down and drag on the road. Although I didn't have an appointment they had my car up on a ramp and within fifteen minutes, sorted the problem and had me back on the road within half an hour.

Turned up with no appointment to get tyre pressure check , the centre was busy as always but Ryan checked pressures .returned later because a fog light had been pushed in when the car was washed Ryan spent time re-attaching a fog light. Always helpful. So great that Ryan consistently runs a business in Salisbury that provides such excellent service. Thank you.

The tyre on my trailer deflated as I drove through Salisbury yesterday. It’s a very small wheel and several tyre outlets were unable to help until I was incredibly lucky to encounter a chap called Ryan at the F1 reception who tried a number of ways to fix the problem. Eventually, using a bucket load of innovation and a polythene bag he managed to get air pressure into the tyre and I had a viable wheel again. I refitted the tyre to the trailer and as I was pulling the trailer back onto both wheels the other tyre deflated - without any hesitation Ryan fixed the second tyre using the same method and I was on my way. 5 stars for F1 Salisbury as a friendly and professional team; but particularly for Ryan’s good natured perseverance, professionalism and innovation. Many Thanks.

My mother-in-law recently took her car for an MOT, which it failed due to the brake calipers, discs, and pads needing replacement. She agreed to the repairs, assuming the quoted price was reasonable.

After she informed me of the total cost, I contacted the garage to verify the pricing. They confirmed that their parts were sourced from Euro Car Parts. However, a comparison showed a significant markup:
• Brake caliper: £121.99 (Euro Car Parts) – charged £291.60
• Discs: £13.49 – charged £218.00
• Pads: £38.19 – charged £106.80

The garage also stated that labour for all replacements totalled £94.20.

While I understand that garages apply a markup to cover overheads, the prices charged here are far beyond reasonable margins. I strongly advise others to exercise caution and confirm all costs before agreeing to any work at this establishment. They will take advantage out of you.

had my mot and service 20th october 2025.. couldn't fault the service on my car as they are on the competitive price but my car was clean when i bought it in the garage but when i collect it my car mat was really dirty with muds from their shoes and they just left the plastic cover on the drivers chair.. just frustrating coz they shouldn't leave it dirty like that especially beforehand it was really clean...

disappointed costumer,
coming from a lady driver..

Have had the MOT and service done on my car today. There was work to be completed to get through the MOT but throughout the time spent waiting I was fully informed of the timescale and price. I am very pleased with the standard of work done . Have called in before to get tyres checked .The manager and his staff are always polite, friendly ,professional and trustworthy. Great job! I would highly recommend the Salisbury branch.

Thank you Robert for sorting out my tyre problem so quickly. It's good to feel safe on the road without flashing warning lights.

Brought the car in with a low pressure tyre warning - suspecting a slow puncture. They checked over everything, determined that it must be a sensor, advised me to check with a dealership and charged me nothing for their time. True gents.

We were in a spot of bother having a nail in our tyre! Ryan the manager was outstanding and dealt with sorting out a permanent fix immediately! I would highly recommend a brilliant service not to mention excellent customer service and all at a very competitive price!! They deserve 5 stars for sure!!😁👍

Travelling to Salisbury this morning our Mercedes was making a terrible clonking noise ..it was quite worrying
We pulled in and just by chance came across Formula one Auto centre Salisbury.
One of the guys said leave it with us and come back in @45 mins ..we had a coffee on our return, the car was test driven,up on the ramp and an inspection and fault was found and fixed.
We can't thank Robert and Andrew enough from being courteous,understanding and explaining the problem and solving the fault
We were on our way within an hour ...
Great guys and a great service
Paul and Debbie Wright

The staff were extremely helpful and took time to explain what work needed doing.

Good fast service and price for new tyre at Salisbury branch.

Everything was as expected. I was attended to immediately on arrival and within 5 minutes my vehicle was in and being worked on

I took my vehicle in to Ryan and his team two days before Christmas because a warning light came on for my ABS braking system. The service I received was terrific. I had decided to also get the car properly serviced and the guys did a great job taking me through what was needed, why, the costs, and - when I said I was stressed about the total cost - how I could access their 0% financing options. They also fitted a sensor for free. Getting spare parts seemed to be no issue and they were great at communicating with me. Highly rated and will use again!

Ryan and his team were more than helpful when replacing two tyres on our car and curing leaking rear tyres. They were all polite and efficient in carrying out the work whilst my wife and I sat in the warm and comfortable waiting room. It’s so nice to be treated so well at this type of garage - well done to all.

Poor service I've got,order a tyre ahead of time,came early at the shop more than 15mins early and then staff told me that the tyre didn't arrived without informing costumer ahead of time
