I found the service fantasic, booking online is quick and very easy and been able to pay by paypal is a great option.

Lorraine , Hanley

I was served by Daren who was friendly and helpful. I was surprised at how nice the waiting area was and it was warm which is lovely when it's freezing outside. I felt the MOT was very comprehensive and the advice I was given informative. Friendly, efficient and reasonable prices - what more could you want? Great to have good service in this day and age! Jo , Brentwood

Jan 25, 2012

Jan 23, 2012

I am writing just to say how courteous, professional and helpful the staff were there. The mechanic that carried out the work on my vehicle was a young man called Lee. I would like to take this opportunity to say that at all time he was very courteous to me and very knowledgeable in mechanics. Before, during and after he answered several questions regarding my vehicle. He certainly knew his stuff. Overall I?m very pleased with the service I received from your branch and will be returning there when I need further work carried out on my vehicle. Gary, Bletchley

LES BERRY LESLIE , Aylesbury

Jan 29, 2012

The vehicle needed a re-test on it's MOT which is why it wasn't ready quite as quickly as I'd originally hoped. Ewan explained why and managed to squeeze my car in so I did get it back the same day. As always I found them friendly and honest, will definitely use again and I make a point of recommending F1 to friends & family. Anna , Hertford

Jan 7, 2012

Was very happy with my first visit to f1, I was informed on arrival that there was a delay and were very apologetic that my car would not be finished within the given time. The staff were friendly and approachable and I will definitely visit again Rachel , Maidstone

Jan 10, 2012

Took my car here for it's MOT, and to get a free winter check. Never been to Formula One before, but heard nothing but good reviews, with a few saying they were pricey. Having seen their MOT as cheap as anywhere else, as well as their Price Promise, I couldn't see how people came to that conclusion. MOT was completed when expected, though unfortunately didn't pass. They offered me the best advice on it, and found prices for everything that it failed on for us. Sadly, the quote was more than the value of the car, as expected, so the car will be moving on soon. Will use again and recommend though. Thom , Nottingham 2 (Bulwell)

Jan 15, 2012

I visited the same F1 centre a few months ago as my tyres needed replacing and I was impressed then with how the staff spent time trying to find me the most cost-effective solution (rather than trying to strong arm me into paying as much as possible, which has happened at other chains), they were also especially friendly to my children as we waited. For that reason, I chose to return for my full service and for the first time ever, was not 'upsold' anything I didn't need. It was also cheaper than competitors. Very impressed. Holly , Maidstone

Jan 10, 2012

Everyone was friendly and professional which gave me a lot of confidence in using F1 again. Reginald , Aylesbury

Jan 24, 2012

Always impressed with the service given at your lenton branch when i take my car for a MOT or tyers they are always very helpful and give me a idea of how much the work will cost before doing the work. Also ideal location as i drop my car off and and collect later since i work only 15 minutes away on the industrial estate. Peter , Nottingham 1 (Lenton)

Jan 23, 2012

Staff were very helpful and explained all to me. Car was in for new tyres and balancing. They checked my tracking for my and explained results at no extra charge. Paul , Milton Keynes

Jan 8, 2012

Denise , Gloucester

Jan 24, 2012

I only recently discovered Formula One Garage when I realised my MOT was overdue! I rang them up in a panic only because they were near to my place of work and it would be more convenient. They sorted me out on the spot, there and then! I was so impressed with the quick, professional and courteous service. Unfortunately, some garages can still be intimidating places for a woman to go in on her own, even if she knows how to do an oil drain, check water and use a dipstick! Keep up the great work Formula One Cambridge Shelagh, Cambridge
