Excellent service …

I have been going here for a few years now for both cars. As a young lady who knows nothing about cars, it takes the wrong people to gain your trust and rip you off. Every experience I have had with formula one staff they are very open and honest and will always try their hardest to make sure I understand what is happening with my car, especially Jeff.
I wouldn't trust any other garage. The team are lovely and professional.

Budget tyres overpriced

Always had a very professional experience in this particular garage with the staff but I don't think I'll be buying tyres here in the future as I've had more competitive quotes from numerous garages.
