- martyn , Canterbury - May 13, 2012

- Benjamin , Basingstoke - May 13, 2012

- Kirsten , Northampton 2(Gambrel) - May 13, 2012
Staff were very friendly from start to finish. Will be the first place I check when shopping around for tyres in the future.
- David , Canterbury - May 11, 2012
I would like to make you aware of the excellent customer service provided by Barry (don't know his surname), the manager of the Mitcham branch of F1 Autocentres. After suffering a puncture, and going into the Mitcham branch for a tyre quote, Barry rang around and got me a replacement tyre at a very cost-effective price. He then showed excellent knowledge about my particular car, explaining the technicalities of the adjustments he was making to the set-up of the tyres, which will improve tyre wear and the life of my tyres going forward.

Barry was extremely helpful, informative and friendly, all the way through the process, and as a result of the way he runs the Mitcham branch, I would have no hesitation in recommending my friends/family to F1 Mitcham. Its very rare to get this level of customer service these days, and I think F1 Autocentres are fortunate to have such a knowledgeable, and committed employee.
- Will, Mitcham - May 11, 2012
Excellent service. Advice given without any pressure to have the additional work done by F1.
- Denise , Hemel Hempstead - May 10, 2012
I visited your site in Southampton on 06 may 2012 and I would like to say that I found the staff to be very friendly and and the manager I think it was Dustin Goodridge to be very helpful. The place was tidy and welcoming and I will be returning time and time again because of this. Thank you for the service and keep up the good work.
- Jason, Southampton - May 10, 2012
Really pleased with Formula one, have now been using this garage for three years. The men who work here are very helpful, polite and I will not be looking for anywhere else to take my car. The best! Thanks
- Kim , Maidstone - May 9, 2012
Very helpful staff and took the time to explain what needed to be done in order for it to pass the MOT. They gave me a quote and the car is booked in for the work. Many thanks.

- Mikala , Doncaster - Apr 30, 2012
I would just like to thank your company for the excellent service you provide. I live just down the road from your Cambridge branch and have been going past it since it opened a few months back. It really does stand out. Last week I decided to start looking around for new tyres for a caravan I own, I located the cheapest tyre online and that was with your company. I went into the Cambridge branch late yesterday to check and to order the tyre I required. The gentlemen behind the counter ensured me that it would be in the following day. I received a call early today saying that the tyre was in; I finished work and headed to the branch. Straight away I was served and believe it or not, but when I said I?ll get the wheel out of my car, the gentlemen replied "Don't do that sir; you will get your hands dirty. We will get that out of your car for you".

Excellent, Thank You
- Mark, Cambridge - Apr 30, 2012
I am quick to complain if I get poor service or goods, so I must be as quick to reward good service, the young man that worked on my car at your Maidstone branch was a credit to your company as was the rest of the staff.

Keep up the good work, Many thanks
- Peter, Maidstone - Apr 30, 2012
i always go to Formula One for MOTs, and if i have any concerns about my car. i had my MOT done a few weeks ago and was advised my 2 front tyres needed replacing, i booked online and got a very good price. While i was there i was offered a tracking check and it showed my allignment was out, not knowing a great deal about cars it was nice that the mechanic showed me in detail what the problem was before i decided to go ahead and get it done, showing me an illustration from the computer. very happy with F1 and will continue to go to them first. very friendly staff, dont blind you with jargon (not knowing alot about cars myself!) have recommended to my friends & workmates :)
- Kelly , Stevenage 1 - Apr 29, 2012

EXCELLENT SERVICE AND ADVICE GIVEN. WILL MOST CERTAINLY BE USING FORMULA ONE AGAIN !
- CARL , Rayleigh - Apr 26, 2012
used regularly for major work, seemed genuinely trustful, helpful and knowledgeable. so booked MOT through website. would definitely use again.
- scott , Redditch - Apr 26, 2012
I just wanted to commend the crew at the Lincoln centre for their fantastic and fast service. It's the first time I have been into a garage and not felt like I had been ripped off. In fact, I felt respected, which is unusual, being a woman driver in these times. Normally I feel overloaded with things I don't understand, but Adam explained everything clearly and went through everything in terms I could understand. I will definitely be going back to Formula One for the rest of the work, because they put their customers above the money and give you the very best deal they can. They've definitely got this motorist as a loyal customer, and I would recommend them to anyone!

Thanks again, to the fabulous crew in Lincoln
- Hannah, Lincoln - Apr 26, 2012
I booked and paid for an MOT online at the special price. The whole process was very simple, the depot was expecting me and everything was done on time. I waited whilst the MOT was completed and was able to catch up on the snooker in the waiting room. I will need two tyres in about 3,000 miles and will definitely visit my local Formula 1 to have them fitted. Staff are friendly and efficient.
- Ian , Harlow - Apr 26, 2012
I Formula one in Ipswich. I will continue to use them as I find the staff friendly and helpful, whilst offering a good qualitity of service
- Graham , Aylesbury - Apr 25, 2012
Free spring 10 point check revealed a few upcoming issues (brakes & pads). Without this my next service would have a few surprises! Helpful staff and thorough work ethic. Many thanks.
- Matthew , Swindon - Apr 25, 2012
The staff were amazingly helpful and explained things clearly. My car was only not ready due to failing it's MOT, and they fixed it up very quickly for me. I've recommended F1 to everyone I know
- Hannah , Lincoln - Apr 25, 2012
The Guys were extremely helpfull and assisted with a leak - advised me on next actions - how to order tyres etc - Very good and would definately recommend you to others
- Terry , Canterbury - Apr 25, 2012
We Always use FI @ Lye for Mot's & Tyre's. Manager ( Colin ) at Lye is very friendly and helpful .Well done F1
- Victoria , Lye - Apr 24, 2012
The staff that I have dealt with at this Branch have always been very helpful and polite. Which is why we always return.
- Sarah , Harlow - Apr 22, 2012
I have repeatedly used Formula 1 in Chelmsford as I find the staff extremely helpful and honest and I do not feel like I am being ripped off
- donna , Chelmsford - Apr 22, 2012
Always good service no matter what the issue. I have all my tyres done at this branch and have done now for a few years. They will not be beaten on price and are always very courteous and helpful. Thanks!
- Howard , Milton Keynes - Apr 20, 2012
Tyres ordered earlier over the internet were fitted immediately on arrival with no delay. Staff were approachable straightforward & friendly. Prices were very competitive & the price quotation kept to without attempts to persuade me to additional expenditure. Would recommend & use again
- Ian , Cheltenham - Apr 20, 2012
My daughter recommended F1 to me when I moved to Chelmsford and I have never regretted my decision touse them the staff are knowledgeable and friendly and dont talk down to you because you are a woman but also understand there are things you may not quite understand. Great job.
- Anne , Chelmsford - Apr 20, 2012
I found the staff very helpful and so friendly it was a pleasure waiting while my car was fixed
- GRAHAM , Lincoln - Apr 20, 2012
A small criticism is that tyres are left with a white residue on the tyre wall after fitting. Could this be cleaned off just to finish the job neatly? Otherwise I can't fault the service and response when tyres weren't available. I was emailed promptly and ordered an alternative. There was no delay and a refund of the difference was made next day. Excellent service thank you.
- Stephen , Crewe - Apr 19, 2012
Have used Formula One for both my cars servicing & maintenance for a few years now, always brilliant service & everything explained properly
- Chris , Southampton - Apr 19, 2012

- James , Chatham - Apr 19, 2012
Good prices, very good friendly service and the guys were helpful but not pushy
- Charles , Southend - Apr 19, 2012
I have been going there for many many years with different cars, and so have people I have recommended. Prices can't be beaten - and if they are F1 will price match and knock a £5 off! Can't ask better than that. Always helpful and professional. Thanks
- Richard , Hertford - Apr 18, 2012
Great garage with a very good helpfull team! F1 Autocentres are only garage i will ever use. Top job at bottom prices!!
- ALAN , Aylesbury - Apr 18, 2012
No-one said if the Spring Safety check had actually been done. No problem, just thought I 'd mention it. Thanks for the great service.
- Annabelle , Aylesbury - Apr 17, 2012
I have been going to Formula One at Chatham for several years now, being a single female I am fully aware that garages can take advantage of this and tell me that work needs doing when it does not, however your Chatham Branch has never made me feel like this and I trust them completely, my last car was very problematic but they always had time for me when I turned up without an appointment and even solved a problem that the main dealership that I bought my car from could not solve, I recommend them to everyone I know. Mannie and the team are definitely my knights in shining armour.
- Paula , Chatham - Apr 17, 2012
Just a short note to say what a great asset your new manager is at the Burton branch. Nothing was too much trouble today and I would recommend your service centre to all my friends.
- Mark, Burton - Apr 17, 2012
Excellent service all the staff were very helpful and explained what they were doing and costs very clearly
- peter , Harrow - Apr 16, 2012
Very happy. Best prices and extremely helpful, friendly and professional staff. I will certainly be back and am will be recommending to friends. Thank you.
- Adrian , Aylesbury - Apr 16, 2012
I am extatic with the service and profesionalism shown when I had tyres replaced. A thorough check was done on my tyres prior to fitment and the advise given was professional and to the point. I have indeed not had this level of service and checks done when replacing my tyres before and will surely recommend Formula One to my friends,family and work collegues. Thank you.
- paul , Crawley - Apr 16, 2012
Graham at the Colchester Branch was excellent and answered all my questions really well - top service!
- Gregory , Colchester - Apr 16, 2012
Was good to see the actual results of the wheel alignment check as it helped me be sure that the additional work needed doing and I was extremely surprised to find that the centre had done an oil and wash screen check as well! Nice one!
- James , Blackheath - Apr 15, 2012
Great service, good quality work, and excellent prices! Well done formula One!
- John , Stevenage 2 - Apr 15, 2012
Staff where very helpful even offered us a warm refreshment, not the first time I have used F1, every visit your staff offer excellent service
- Alan , Swindon - Apr 15, 2012
The staff are extremely friendly, but they were so busy on that day that they were not able to spend time explaining to me properly a few faults that they have discovered with my car. All I wanted to know was that are the the faults serious and how much it costs to fix them. This vital information will enable me to budget and to go back to F1 to get them fixed in near future. F1 provides excellent service and the charges are competitive. I have 4 cars in the family and have and will be taking to F1 for any works need doing. I have been so impressed with F1 that I have recommended you to a few of my colleagues. I work in the organisation which employ 350 staff. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !
- Wong , Harlow - Apr 15, 2012
I have taken my car to f1 autocentres Derby and Southampton, and on all occassions have been really pleased with the service. Everything is explained so well, and prices are good. Fantastic.
- Tilli , Derby - Apr 14, 2012

- Sarah , Harlow - Apr 14, 2012
The manger of the colchester shop went out of his way to keep me informed and recommend the best course of action to get my car back on the road. I would say that this was one of the best customer service experiences I have ever had from a garage.
- simon , Colchester - Apr 14, 2012

- david , Nottingham 2 (Bulwell) - Mar 28, 2012
I have used formula one on many occasions, the staff are always very freindly but professional. As a women driver I always feel that they explain the work and the work they do is required and Im not being ripped off. The work completed is always done to a great standard I have never had to return the car. The paperwork is always comprehensive and explains everything fully. The prices are very reasonable and for all of the above reasons I will continue to return. I also used the online service for the first time and that was also very easy to use! Keep up the Good Work! :)
- Mary , Portsmouth - Mar 27, 2012

- Andrew , Basingstoke - Mar 24, 2012
very friendly staff - will be using F1 again to replace my back 2 tyres!
- Joey , Chesterfield - Mar 24, 2012
I needed two tyres and did a internet search for the best deal found f1autocenters had a competitive price for tyres fitted. Ordered via their website and chose my preferred centre for fitting, had correct tyres as ordered fitted and balanced no extra cost as already paid online. Staff very helpful and efficient, will certainly consider f1 in future, Thanks
- A , Hertford - Mar 23, 2012
Very friendly staff especially the Lady there (dont know her name). She explained all the paperwork I was given after having MOT and Service.Everything was explained in detail by her.You should employ more people like this Lady as she is a credit to your firm.
- Paula , Newcastle - Mar 23, 2012
Richard was extremely helpful and due to the excellent customer service we immediately booked in our second car for its service and MOT. I will continue to recommend Formula One Autocentres to family, friends and work colleagues.
- Martin , Poole - Mar 23, 2012
The Team were short staffed on Monday ( the day I was booked) so I returned the next day, first thing in the morning. They were really friendly & helpful. The tracking adjustment machine is a very smart piece of equipment, I do feel you'd do more adjustments if the benefits of this additional service were more well advertised. It does offer the customer a real insight into how well their vehicle may or may not be set up correctly. The only thing needing improvement is the 'worn out' appeaernce, but possibly due to it being an old but well worked centre. It was as neat & tidy as could be expected though - so not an issue there! Thank you
- Mark , Luton - Mar 21, 2012
Very helpful staff. Staff went out of their way to make sure all was ok and that I was happy. Excellent service 3rd year in a row. Will be back again soon.
- Booth , Mansfield - Mar 21, 2012
It's not often that I write testimonial e-mails but in a world that all too frequently provides indifferent customer service, I wanted to pen a simple "Thank You" to recognise the excellent service and warm welcome I received when I took our Lexus in for new tyres at your Bristol Day's Road branch this afternoon.

When I phoned this morning, looking for 2 new Bridgestone Turanzas, there was only one in stock…on hearing that I wanted them for a long journey the next day, the staff quickly phoned round to find another one and got it to the branch later that afternoon…From the moment I arrived, the service was welcoming and professional, with warm smiles and a friendly chat from both the technicians who handled the transaction…They even enquired if the next day's long journey was to be made full load or 2 up, as they would have adjusted the tyre pressures accordingly…that was just a small extra consideration but it really stood out and marked the team as people who care about customer service and are prepared to go the extra mile. It's these little things that count but sometimes go un-noticed…tyre fitting is a grubby job…I noted that the technician put a plastic cover on the seat and clean gloves on when he drove the car out of the bay & then removed it before giving me back the keys…

Top marks!

The price was very competitive too…Well done guys!…Thank you for a great customer experience…We'll certainly be back
- Paul, Bristol - Mar 21, 2012
Service completed in the morning, received a courtesy call to advise what additional items were required. Received another call when the car was finished a short time afterwards. Service book had been stamped. All good. Very pleased with the service.
- David , Crawley - Mar 19, 2012
It is not often that people take the time to compliment a company on it's service but I would like to do just that…

Just over a week ago I visited your F1 centre in Colchester to enquire about the fitting of 4 new tyres for my Mazda 3 sport. Graham the Manager there went out of his way to explain in detail the pros and cons of various manufacturers and tread patterns available to me thus ensuring I chose the best option for me and my car.

The standard of fitting was first class as was the service from all of Graham's team.

I would not hesitate to use this branch again in the future and equally would have no problem in recommending your company and in particular this branch to anyone.

Special thanks to Graham and his team - well done guys
- Ron, Colchester - Mar 19, 2012
As per my previous experience with Formula One I found the staff knowledgeable, helpful and completely reassuring. I opted for the Master Service and the Free Winter check and their comments and advice as to what was needed to rectify any issues, and the speed that they carried out the work, allowed me to easily plan my day without the car. Thank you.
- Nick , Canterbury - Mar 19, 2012
I use F1 because the staff are so friendly and trustworthy, with the job i do the people that do work on my car need to be trustworthy and friendly. The Maidstone F1 are a great bunch of guys and they don't take the mick as they actually what is wrong with your car instead some garages tell you a whole load of crap just so you will spend more money but the F1 guys in Maidstone tell you how it is. So well done F! Maidstone for having a great team
- Mark , Maidstone - Mar 18, 2012
The Chatham branch are always busy but always provide a great service, have used them for many years. Most importantly I don't feel that I am being ripped off. Thanks guys, keep up the good work.

Repeat customer due to price, quality and customer service. Will continue to use and recommend F1 Autocentres to others!
- Simon , Basingstoke - Mar 18, 2012

- Jo , Northampton 2(Gambrel) - Mar 17, 2012
Really impressed by the team. Very friendly, very honest and extremely pleased with the service. I was recommended to Formula One by my mum and i'm glad I decided to switch from another national service provider, where every year there always seemed to be loads of expensive bills. Highly recommend Formula One and will be using them from now on for my motoring needs.
- Matthew , Nottingham 2 (Bulwell) - Mar 16, 2012
The staff was happy to let me know through using the text facility on mobile. Clear explanation on what certain parts of car need replacing. Will recommend to people.

- Joanne , Northampton 2(Gambrel) - Mar 15, 2012

- anthony , Bristol - Mar 15, 2012
Visited last year for MOT, car failed and had to pay quite a lot for repairs in order to pass. Visited again this year, car passed with no problems. Indeed the guys done a good job last year. Very pleased.
- Costin , Canterbury - Mar 15, 2012
Have used the Chelmsford F1 Garage for a good 8 years now on two or three cars for servicing, MOT's & tyres. Always found the customer service to be helpful, the staff knowledgeable, the prices very competitive and have a comfortable and clean waiting area (unlike a couple of local competitors I could mention). Always recommend F1 to friends and family.
- Jonathan , Chelmsford - Mar 13, 2012
I keep coming back to F1 as they are always helpful and offer competitive prices - matching any better deals around.
- D R , Poole - Mar 12, 2012
A very efficient affordable and friendly service, and one i will recommend to friends. Thank you
- Richard , Aylesbury - Mar 12, 2012
It can be very difficult to find not only a reasonably priced but also honest garage that clearly explains the work being done and any recommendations. I was particularly pleased that though they did recommend some additional work they were friendly and honest and happily accepted that I did not want it done this time. Garages can pressurise you to do work that isn't needed so I was very pleased. I would recommend them to anyone. And of course the work that they did do was of high quality.
- Richard , Norwich - Mar 12, 2012
The Canterbury team are really good. Whenever we have a problem with our car we always go back. They don't charge ridiculous prices and offer a great service.
- Gavin , Canterbury - Mar 11, 2012
Friendly, helpful staff. A great service and customer experience. It's why I keep coming back.
- Robert , Burton - Mar 11, 2012
Been using Harlow auto centre for a few years now and would recommend them to anybody.
- Jodi , Harlow - Mar 11, 2012
I think the investment in ICT is paying dividends for you - booking an MOT at a time/place to suit me was helpful and online payment introduced a good price too. This then lead to the centre expecting me at my requested time and I was dealt with in a helpful manner by Colin. All in all very satisfied.
- Lance , Lye - Mar 11, 2012
After being advised by another company that I needed new brakes last year, when I asked them to be checked during my service at Gambrel rd. I was told they were fine, I knew I had found a trustworthy garage and I am therefore happy to return there and recommend formula 1 to friends and family
- joanne , Northampton 2(Gambrel) - Mar 11, 2012
Staff were very friendly and would recommend F1 auto centres to everyone
- Samantha , Nottingham 2 (Bulwell) - Mar 11, 2012
I had my MOT done and I was very impressed with the service and the additional helpful comments.
- Joan , Stevenage 1 - Mar 10, 2012
My fiance has visited Colchester branch before for an MOT and four new tyres, and this is why i decided to take my car. All staff very friendly and helpful. And also like being able to book online.
- chris , Colchester - Mar 10, 2012
BEEN TO THIS GARAGE MANY TIMES AND ALWAYS HAD GREAT SERVICE. ALSO GOT A PRICE PROMISE ON MY TYRES . VERY HAPPY. WILL USE AGAIN AND RECOMMEND TO FRIENDS AND FAMILY.
- peter , Burton - Mar 10, 2012
Very competetive prices and helpful staff I waited for my car and the mechanic got on with it straight away. It was ready and finished in quick time so I was very pleased with the service.
- Richard , Nottingham 1 (Lenton) - Mar 10, 2012
The staff are friendly and helpful, not patronising to women like other garages, would definatley recommend to others and will use this garage again.
- Grace , Lye - Mar 9, 2012
Very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly staff. I shall be happy to recommend you for spot on service. Thanks. It was disappointing that your customer waiting room was equipped only with a soft drinks dispenser when what I really needed was a cup of coffee - due, no doubt, to the trauma of fitting tyres worth more than the car!!!!
- Peter , Ipswich - Mar 9, 2012
allways a polite and friendly service,fair prices,have been using since 1988
- ALF , Basildon - Mar 9, 2012
I've been impressed with this branch of F1 every time I have visited. After previous experience getting tyres and then a service, this was my first MOT with you, it was easy to book online and carried out swiftly. I'll definitely recommend you.
- Holly , Maidstone - Mar 8, 2012
MOT carried out at Aston House branch... As always helpful friendly team.. No issues at all. With no disrepect to the guys either it was very clean concidering the environment - Nice Job done..
- Paul , Stevenage 1 - Mar 7, 2012

- neal , Mansfield - Mar 7, 2012
Exceptional service as always, I wouldn't take my fleet of cars anywhere else.
- David , Enfield - Mar 7, 2012
This was my first visit to a Formula 1 autocentre. I used Formula1 on a recommendation from a work colleague who had used the Chelmsford branch, I was unable to book an appointment at the Chelmsford branch that fitted in with me so used the Colchester branch instead and to say I was impressed would be an understatement. The staff members were extremely helpful, accommodating and friendly. It is good to see that good old customer services still exists in this country to such a high standard The staff took the time to explain everything without using all the technical language to confuse but didn’t make me feel stupid either. I would highly recommend Formula1 to anyone and will most defiantly use them in future. Darren and the team were a breath of fresh air within the industry and a real credit to Formula1.
- Lee , Colchester - Mar 7, 2012
I found the staff helpful / Omar was very good at explaining things .... i will be using this centre again. Many thanks Rob

- Elliott , Cheltenham - Mar 4, 2012
As a female on my own, they didn't make me feel uncomfortable or ignorant of cars. Very friendly, even though extremely busy, always polite and informative. Definitely go back.
- Nicola , Chatham - Mar 2, 2012
Very effective and efficient, would certainly use them again and would recommend them to others. We booked on a recommendation from a relative.
- Robert , Southampton - Mar 2, 2012
Always use F1 and recommend to family and friend - fast convenient and competitive
- Laura , Hemel Hempstead - Mar 2, 2012
Always found staff to be friendly and helpful. As a women you sometimes get treated like an idiot at some garages but never found that with formula 1. Brilliant service and will continue to use them in the future.
- Dawn , Redditch - Mar 1, 2012
Once again, excellent service from the guys at Ipswich Formula 1. Took car in for Mot, service & air-con re-gas. got a call to say car had failed mot and why, advised me the cost for the work needed, was cheaper than the few places i called, and car was ready to collect in good time. Will have no problem using F1 again.
- Scott , Ipswich - Mar 1, 2012
My family and I all use formula 1 due to both pricing and efficiency. I also recommend them to colleagues for these reasons.
- michael , Chatham - Mar 1, 2012

Tried F1 for the first time for an MOT (in Poole). Thought you might like a message telling you good things.

I was very impressed with everything. Loved the way you can book a slot online. Helpful, friendly staff. You kept to the timings stated and it was excellent value.

I have to do nearly a 40 mile round trip to use you, but I'd rather that than pay £20 more 2 miles down the road and have staff who treat you as if you are an inconvenience and tell you that their price is "the standard charge".

I'll certainly be doing the MOTs for our other 2 cars with you as well. I've now seen your price promise regarding tyres so next time we need any we'll be sure to check you out.

Thank you

- Liz, Poole - Feb 29, 2012

Very helpful staff as always,nice to know a garage you can trust without getting ripped off.while I was there, a woman thought she needed two new tyres,and was advised against it as her tyres were fine.now that's good honest service,as some garages would have just changed them anyway.the lady was very pleased with the outcome,and am sure she will be visiting again.Well done lads.!

Have visited for the MOT twice now and having been advised that air con may need regassing etc (they tested the temp on my request), I will be booking this with them in the near future. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Would definitely recommend this branch to others. In the future, it would be nice to see a fixed price list of sorts in the reception area for certain items like oil service, fuel filter, front pads, rear pads which I know some companies have. Some customers these days do not want the full service.

- Nitin , Harrow - Feb 17, 2012
I really must congratulate you on the quality of service i recieved today at my local branch or Formula One Autocentre in Chelmsford.

After shopping around for replacement tyres I found your prices highly competetive, always a good start. Backed by the excellent advise at the desk and an obviously motivated and knowlegable technician I felt in good hands for the entire visit. The feel of the car when I drove away was superb which is highly reassuring in the current inclement weather.

Once again, many thanks. I will be happy to provide recommendations for your company
- Jim, Chelmsford - Feb 16, 2012
I visited your Brentwood branch today for the first time, after making an appointment to replace 2 tyres - what excellent helpful service and politeness ! A big thanks to all.

I was made aware of tracking - I had it checked. A fault was found, so had it corrected - plus I purchased a pair of windscreen wipers. I will return in July, for an annual service and MOT. Keep the standards up. Thanks again.

- Bill , Colchester - Feb 14, 2012
For the past 5 years I have been going to your centre in Chelmsford, for MOT's services, etc. I would like to say that the level of service at this centre is fantastic. I wanted to take some time to send my thanks to the team there. These guys are great at explaining what needs doing, presenting evidence, and more importantly, if it don't need doing they tell you as well, no rip off, hard sell or blinding folk with science. These days this level of service is required to ensure return custom, and I am evidence that these guys really put customers first, and this needs to be commended.

Again I will not go anywhere else for work on my car, Keep up the good work!
- Lee, Chelmsford - Feb 14, 2012
I've always used this place, cheap competitive prices are a must, great service too is priceless. At this place I always get both.

- thomas , Poole - Jan 31, 2012
I have previously used a different branch as I lived in a different location and always found the staff clear, straight forward and helpful; this has also been the case with my recent visit to the Chelmsford branch and it is good to see that there is consistent customer service delivery at F1.
- Julia , Chelmsford - Jan 30, 2012
I recently had my car into your centre in Mitcham to replace 2 tyres (tyres bought through black circle). Barry was the person that I dealt with, he was informative helpful and polite. 10 out of 10.

Better customer service than I have received in most 5 star hotels and restaurants.
- Paul, Mitcham - Jan 30, 2012
I was very happy with the service provided, the staff were friendly, approachable and efficient. I also found the waiting area very clean and a nice place to wait for the work to be completed. I will certainly use them again in the future.
- Victoria , West Quay - Jan 30, 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.

- Brian , Redditch - 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 24, 2012
Yes it was my first visit to Formula One and I will certainly be using you again. I have already recommended to my family and friends the great cost and speed involved. The Winter check was great, it really was an eye opener with what needed to be done to my car. I will certainly be bringing it back once I get paid! Many Thanks again.
- Emma , Canterbury - Jan 24, 2012
Very efficient on a very quiet Monday morning. Unfortunately located on wrong side of Ipswich. Great offer of beating Internet price by £5 which I found by accident.
- David , Ipswich - 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 - Jan 24, 2012
I have been going to Formula One for the past couple of years. I have found the team to be very helpful, friendly and able to give good mechanical advice. I have been so impressed by the service given that the entire family now use the Gloucester branch of Formula One and we have recommended it to friends and acqaintances. Brilliant!
- Denise , Gloucester - Jan 24, 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.

- Miguel , Hertford - Jan 19, 2012
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 found the staff, friendly and everything was explained in terms i could understand. i was told how much the work would cost and why. this helped all to often your just given a price but no reason for why it costs that amount. i found the staff courteous and helpful. i left feeling i had been well cared for.
- CLIFFORD , Poole - Jan 15, 2012
Excellent group over at the Hanley F1. This was my 4th time using F1 and will continue to from now on. Never disappointed.
- Laura , Hanley - 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 15, 2012
Although the opening time was 08:30 there was some one at the Crawley branch ahead of the opening time I could leave the key with. Very helpful
- Paul , Crawley - Jan 14, 2012

MOT staff were helpful and friendly answered the phone quickly and had everything ready.
- martin , Hemel Hempstead - Jan 11, 2012
Everyone was friendly and professional which gave me a lot of confidence in using F1 again.
- Reginald , Aylesbury - 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 10, 2012
Very thorough. Polite and helpful staff. Good value for money. Will use again
- JAMES , Southampton - Jan 10, 2012
Anthony the mechanic was very helpful and kept us informed every inch of the way - an asset to your company

I could not praise the guys enough for there advice and helpfulness especially for the fantasic price I'm already referring to family and friends. I could not ask for a better service.
- Lorraine , Hanley - Jan 9, 2012

I went to Formula 1 for the first time last year to seek advice after my car was serviced and MOT by A large dealership company who has always serviced and MOT my car I was really worried about the information I recieved from them about suggested work. Your staff were excellent they checked my car and put my mind at rest and were very informative and helpful. I returned to Formula a few monthslater to have the two front tyres fitted and tracking done. I received an excellent service. I returned again on 3rd January 2012 to have my car serviced and MOT. The car passed the MOT and I was advised of work that would be required over the next few months. I was happy for the staff to sort the work on the same day. I again recieved an excellent service and the advice and information were second to none. I will continue to use and recommend F1 to other as a very please customer Thank you Kind regards Wendy
- Wendy , Bristol - Jan 5, 2012
I would just like you to know of the experience my girlfriend and I had with your Wigston branch in Leicester. I spoke with the branch via phone this morning asking for a quote for my girfriends Peugeot 206CC to have a replacement rear end silencer. The staff member I spoke to was very pleasant and although I had a better quote, he agreed to improve on the quote. Because of the manner in which he handled the call, I chose not to continue searching for a better price and ordered the parts for him. When the part arrived I spoke with him again and he told me that he would be able to get the car in straight away. My girlfriend took her car to the branch and was treated courteously and the parts were fitted quickly (despite the garage being extremely busy when she arrived) and everything was already set up on the computer with the better price so all she had to do was pay for the work. She was so pleased with the way everything was dealt with, she has decided to change our regular garage for all MOT/servicing and general work her car may need. I will be changing to use this garage for all the work on my own car also.

Many thanks for the fantastic service experience this branch offered, I will indeed recommend your branch to all my friends/colleagues. I hope the staff who dealt with me on the phone, and my girlfriend on site should be given the accolade they deserve, from your company.

Thanks again
- Ian, Wigston - Jan 5, 2012

Visiting a garage can often be intimidating, but was pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of the staff at the centre in Basildon on 02/01/12.

I experienced excellent service from the manager and team at Southend. I had booked on the internet to have new tyres fitted to my son's car and asked for the brakes to be checked whilst the wheels were off the car. The manager showed me that the front discs were badly corroded and within 15 minutes he had arranged for a new set of front discs to be delivered to site. Within an hour and a half or arriving at Formula 1 Southend, I had 4 new tyres fitted, new front discs and brake pads and the steering geomentry checked and realligned. Overall the experience I had from Formula 1 Southend was excellent. Well done Formula 1 Southend, a very satisfied customer!

I'm always pleased with the service, and will keep going back if it stays like it is. Well done all.
- Stephen , Norwich - Nov 6, 2011

- IAN , Nottingham 2 (Bulwell) - Oct 30, 2011
This is my second Formula 1 experience. Both have been excellent. There is something reassuring about a guy in overalls and covered in grease being at the front desk rather than some 'unknowing' receptionist. The service is friendly , efficient and good value. You shame the local BMW dealer on all counts.
- David , Bedford - Oct 28, 2011
Great service. Friendly and welcoming by front desk and the guy who did the work on my car
- Colin , Cheltenham - Oct 28, 2011

- jonathan , Stevenage 1 - Oct 28, 2011
As a lady driver I have spent a long time (23 years of driving) to find a garage I can trust (unfortunately I have not always had good experiences of the motor trade) and last year I went online after being let down once again, and came across Formula One garages and after my first experience and now second I would not go anywhere else. On both ocassions I was treated with respect and talked through exactly what was being done to my car. Also the waiting room area is amazing given it is a garage (clean and tidy). I have told my son and his wife and many of my friends about Formula One and your offers as they are brilliant also. Many thanks, Miss P Thomas
- Paula Louise , Hemel Hempstead - Oct 27, 2011

- Geoff , Stevenage 1 - Sep 30, 2011
After receiving poor service over the phone with Kwik Fit when trying to book my car in for new rear brakes, I remembered the great service I received from you for a new tyre a few months back. So I called the Long Eaton centre and spoke with Craig. From the start he was very helpful and friendly. Kwik Fit could not quote me nor give a convenient time. However Craig quoted me and booked me in at a good time in minutes (even with a dodgy internet connection)

I felt compelled to contact you to let you know how Formula One Long Eaton stamps out the stereotype of poor service, high prices and none efficiency.

I have promptly cancelled my appointment with Kwik Fit and look forward to the good service I have experienced from Long Eaton's Centre tomorrow as that is when I am booked in.

This was great as my car is my business as I am a Driving Instructor.

I would like to request this email to be passed onto the Centre Managers.
- Victoria, Long Eaton - Sep 30, 2011
Used on many occasions and always been happy with staff and service given, would recommend and will continue to use.
- Carole , Northampton 2(Gambrel) - Sep 29, 2011

I find your prices very competitive locally and your staff are friendly and helpful.
- Stefan , Leicester - Sep 27, 2011
I know people will use this care line for complaints, but I just wanted to let you know how pleased and impressed I was with your team at Peterborough.

I rang this morning to book in my C-Max for a battery and brake check, half expecting there to be a long wait to get it looked at. I was pleasantly surprised as the cheery Tom, on the phone said to bring the car in as soon as I was ready, to get it looked at today.

After I arrived at the centre, the car was quickly assessed and I was told that the battery was in need of replacement, but the brake pads still had some wear on them and so were not urgent to be changed. I was spoken to and dealt with in a very professional manner, and despite not being totally knowledgeable about mechanics, was never talked down to or thought I was being mis lead.

I often take my car to a local mechanic I am friendly with at another garage, but after the good service I was given at your Peterborough branch, I will certainly use Formula One again, in fact we spoke about bringing in my wife's car to be looked at, as it has a few niggling problems.

Many Thanks , and do please pass on my good comments to your team at Peterborough.
- Lawrence, Peterborough - Sep 27, 2011
All staff were both helpful and friendly. Work required was explained thoroughly, but without over use of "jargon" or technical terms. I will definitely use the centre again. Thankyou.
- PETER , Lincoln - Sep 25, 2011
The staff at your Long Eaton Centre are first class. Always very helpful and always willing to give advice. Your price promise means I always get the best deal so I have no reason to go elsewhere for my tyres. Thank you for the excellent service.

- Russell , Maidstone - Sep 14, 2011
I have been using F1 Autocentre in Peterborough for many years now and no longer even bother getting tyre, exhaust or brake quotes from any other franchise. The staff at this branch have always been friendly and helpful, unless things change dramatically, I will not be taking my business elsewhere. Unfortunately, my son did not follow my advice and went to one of your competitors. His car now appears to have a twisted chassis and required the sump cover to be replaced after it was overtightened and cracked (their explanation!!).
- Kev , Peterborough - Sep 13, 2011
Have used the Gambrel Road site on several occasions and will continue to do so. Prices, especially for tyres, are amongst the most competitive in Northampton. The service received has always been excellent and all staff members have a good attitude towards their customers.
- Andy , Northampton 2(Gambrel) - Sep 13, 2011
Great service and extremely helpful. The online booking and payment made life easy and the price promise was honoured too.
- robert , Southampton - Sep 13, 2011
Before i start,this is not a complaint,it's quite the opposite. This is the first time for me to use your F1 tyre service and that was only based on the price of my tyres being cheaper than other tyre centres in the area with you tyre price match and extra £5 per tyre off.....F1AUTOCENTRE were the only tyre centre to who were willing to price match other competitors not only drive in dealers but also online !! This is fantastic and i got a really good price. My tyres were fitted at your Swindon tyre centre and when i got there i thought it was just another Kwik-Fit but to my surprise it was not. There was no long queues to been seen and was dealt with immediately. within 5 mins my car was on ramp and not out side for 2 hours. nice clean waiting room with a tv,leather seats and big window so you can see your cars progress. It is a really nice tyre centre, infact the best in Swindon. The only one thing that let it down was that there is no tea or coffee available.I was told there was a cafe next door inside another shop. However a free cup of Joe would have made my day.. something so small but i think is nice to be available especially when you just paid out £500 on 4 new tyres. If you can keep this up you will have so many loyal customers, i will certainly be recommending you. I would like to say thanks and for you to pass this gratitude on to the Swindon store as well. Will see you next time i need another set of tyres .

I just want to pass on my thanks and appreciation for the outstanding customer service I have just received from Ryan and Chris at the Aylesbury branch. I recently had the misfortune of a flat tyre, caused by a split alloy wheel rim.

From the start of the replacement process through to the successful resolution, both Chris and Ryan were excellent - they were exceptionally helpful, accommodating and friendly.

It is rare that I feel compelled to comment on customer service, but the level of care and attention I received was exemplary. I was already using you guys for the competitively priced tyres - but this excellent experience has only reinforced my inclination to become a loyal customer.

Please ensure you pass on my thanks to them both.
- Nick, Aylesbury - Sep 12, 2011

First visit was to sort out my Wife's Fiesta. Staff were very friendly and very efficient. My second visit was to have the front tyres on my Porsche replaced and the front tracking adjusted.The service was as previous and the price of the tyres was competitive. My intro to F1 Autocentres was via an evening invitation to my local Porsche dealership where Michelin Tyres were also promoted. Subsequently I receive the Michelin newsletter which recommends F1 Aoutocentres.Based on my experiences, I have recommended them to my fellow drivers.
- Tony , Cambridge - Aug 28, 2011
You staff were helful, respectful and very friendly. The "waiting lounge" with TV is an excellent idea. It is however a very male environment and the stairs leading up to this lounge were in desperate need of a good clean, including cobweb removal! However, this would not stop me from using you again, I would say that my first visit was a very good experience!
- Annie , Gloucester - Aug 28, 2011
The guys at Cambridge are great, very friendly and very helpful would definitely recommend to friends
- Will , Cambridge - Aug 28, 2011

- Joanne , Basildon - Aug 20, 2011
friendly team, great service, good prices....would recommend it to others
- Marianna , Harrow - Aug 19, 2011
I just wanted to express how fantastic the guys are at the Basingstoke Branch.

The Branch Manager and all his team seem to be honest, genuine mechanics who really care about their customers and the service they provide.

As a blonde female with little knowledge of cars, I have often been treated with sarcasm in the past and probably ripped off as well. Aaron and the other guys were all really helpful, offering advice and not pushy at all. A real breath of fresh air.

Please pass on my thanks and keep up the good work!
- Michelle, Basingstoke - Aug 19, 2011
I did have to return after leaving as two of the wheel nuts had come lose from underneath the trim but they were very helpful when i went back, good job!

Excellent service within timescale quoted and comprehensive written quotation for repair work issued upon collection.
- IAN , Burton - Aug 17, 2011
The Aylesbury staff were very friendly & helpful. I will definitely return for a full service when due.
- Stephen , Aylesbury - Aug 16, 2011
I found the service very good. I liked the fact that I could order online and also the special offer on the service and MOT was very welcome. I had a full service and MOT which revealed extra work that needed to be done but the car was ready for me by the end of the day. The man on reception was particuarly helpful and friendly. I was very impressed that he stayed for a little bit longer after 6pm so I could collect my car as i was stuck in traffic.
- Natalie , Maidstone - Aug 16, 2011
EXCEPTIONAL SEVICE, USED PREVIOUSLY FOR TYRES AND THEN SUBSEQUENTLY BOOKED FOR MOT. VERY HELPFUL STAFF ON THE 3 OCCASIONS, CREDIT TO THE BUSINESS!
- JULIE , Redditch - Aug 15, 2011
Third time I have used the Cheltenham centre and happy to use again. Constructive comment Earlier this year my daughter was down from Manchester for the weekend and got a puncture which needed to be changed quickly as her spare wheel is only a space saver. Looked on F1 website, found a tyre and phoned Cheltenham centre to see if they had it stock and could sell it at your internet price. Answer was yes they had one, but no they were not able to sell it at internet prices. F1 lost a sale to Kwik Fit. Therefore F1 is good if customers have time but potentially loose out on short term requirements?
- Andrew , Cheltenham - Aug 15, 2011
I am one of the first to complain when things go wrong, conversely, when a Company and more importantly its Members of Staff show exemplary customer service I feel compelled to bring it to the attention of the person in charge.

Having recently sold up and moved from Northumberland to Staffordshire I had to obtain tyres for my wifes Ford Ka after a failed MOT at a garage in our new home town of Cheadle.

While my wife was having a check up at the hospital in Newcastle I visited a number of your competitors prior to your branch on Liverpool Road.

Neil Spafford assessed the existing tyres, advised me what I needed and enquired about the failed MOT. After examining the failure report which he felt was inaccurate on a number of points, he asked the lady, (Linda), who carries out the Mots, to give her expert opinion. She agreed with him.

They booked my car in, replaced the tyres where needed, welded minor rust spots, retested it, undersealed it effectively and gave me the level of service and customer care which I thought no longer existed.

Should I or anyone I know be needing an annual service or any motoring requirements in the future, your Mr. Spafford will be the first to be contacted as both he and Linda did a remarkable job in a most professional and couteous manner.
- Mr. Craig, Newcastle - Aug 15, 2011
staff as usual, helpful, polite considerate. nothing seems to be to much trouble. I always enjoy having to go their because I know I can rely on them to be honest with me.
- Georgina , Southampton - Aug 14, 2011
Excellent friendly service. Great online system that meant I was able to book a slot out of hours. Would definitely use again
- Leigh-Ann , Cheltenham - Aug 14, 2011
Very pleased with service received, will be going back for new tyres which your staff recommended, thanks will tell friends and family of your good service
- sharon , Lye - Aug 13, 2011
The service at your Crewe garage is the best I have experienced regarding motor repairs. Andy, who dealt with me was very professional, helpful and I would, and already have recommended him to friends. I will continue to bring my car back to F1 rather than using smaller independents. For someone who knows little about cars, using F1 is ideal. Feel free to pass on my comments to the mechanics at Crewe, they do a great job.
- Martin , Crewe - Aug 12, 2011
Second time I have used Formula One in Lincoln. The staff there are polite, friendly and honest. I will certainly be using them again and would recommend them to anyone.
- Andrew , Lincoln - Aug 11, 2011
Well done to all the team. I'm now a usual customer and I always recommend to my friends! Great customer service as I never in a garage before. Once again, WELL DONE!

- Donna , Peterborough - Aug 9, 2011
This is the only garage I trust. Would strongly recommend to my friends.
- Patricia , Harrow - Aug 9, 2011
"I have been taking all my cars to your autocentre in Norwich since you opened. I am very pleased with the level of service that I get every time I need something done in one of my cars. I am very pleased with the changes that you have implemented and I can say that Trevor is making an excellent job.

As an example when I was there during one of my visits, a man was trying to get a new catalyst from you for nothing. Trevor maintained a very professional approach by balancing the company's interest and still providing excellent customer service skills.

I have to say that James is also a brilliant guy always smiling and an asset for your business, in fact the whole team is excellent.

I am continuously recommending your center to my staff and friends

Excellent job"
- Bill, Norwich - Aug 8, 2011
Would like to thank Paul Bear for being so helpful with my replacement of x4 new tyres and for being so customer friendly. I shall certainly return when I need anymore work done to my car...and so winning vouchers would be a bonus!!! Thank you Linda

Very good service and competitive pricing. I've been to F1 in the past and will visit again in the future. Keep up the good work!
- David , Crawley - Aug 8, 2011
As a first time car owner, experiencing the MOT process for the first time I found staff at F1 Redditch Branch both helpful and friendly. They took the time to explain the process and all necessary repairs and I came away feeling reassured. I'll definitely be returning in the future and will recommend F1 to both my local friends and family, and as a national chain .
- david , Redditch - Aug 6, 2011
Went for MOT, service was reasonably quick and I felt watching the tester that the car was being given a good test. Although the car failed on two minor points (rectified straight away) everything was explained. Impressed that the tester could see that there was a minor buckle on one of the wheels (which I know about). All in all still pleased to use Formula 1.
- Martin , Southend - Aug 5, 2011
I have used Poole branch for a number of years and moved to Portsmouth must say both branches have been very good and would recommend them to anyone. I have an old car and am very worried that garages would try and say i need work done when I dont. But never your garages I am always confident that only work that is necessary will do done which for a woman is very reassuring. thank you keep up the good customer service and I will be back year after year.

I booked online and was told online to turn up at 0830. There was no time specified on my booking confirmation but upon arrival I was told that they could not start work on my car until much later. It would be helpful if the online booking confirmation could show the time the vehicle is expected.
- William , Cambridge - Jul 27, 2011
Very helpful & friendly staff. It was really good to have an online booking system which I found very easy to navigate. The 50% off mot's booked online is also a great bonus!
- carol , Crawley - Jul 27, 2011
Really friendly service for the n'th year running. Hadn't realised you were a family owned business - makes me extra pleased to do business with you! (You probably should redesign your form so default is 'no view' rather than 'perfect/100%/couldn't do better' if you want most realistic/honest feedback!)
- Donald , Milton Keynes - Jul 27, 2011
Keep up the good work! I shall certainly be recommending you to my friends and colleagues.
- Andy , Southampton - Jul 26, 2011
The staff at Formula one were increidbly helpful, I first visited the Bedford Centre to get my break pads done - the service received was excellent and the price was spot on. The staff there also helped me to find the cheapest centre of tyres too as I was in need of 4 and so I booked straight back in to get those done the next week. I would recommend them to anyone!
- Elizabeth , Bedford - Jul 26, 2011
I was pleased that Darren from your Ipswich centre rang me to inform me that I had ordered on the web a BMW fitting when I had a Mercedes. Fast and efficient service was provided by Chelmsford, ordering on the web makes things so easy.

Excellent service, have used the depot before and the staff are always very helpful and the work is done promptly, I have recommended them to other friends.
- Beverly , Ipswich - Jul 21, 2011
The staff were very helpful. When I arrived I did not relaise the online prices were not actually the same in the actual centres - which I think should be strongly pointed out on your website. They did suggest I went home and ordered online and come back which I did to get the brilliant rate. However, to order online I had to say I would have them fitted days later and was going on holiday. Once agin your staff said to come back and they would be fitted there and then as they were in stock. However when I came back from holiday I had two answerphone message saying my tyres were ready for fitting ??? Clearly they had forgot to clear off the fitting / date flag from my invoice etc.
- Simon , Southampton - Jul 20, 2011

Good service and on time. Would recommend a "wheel clean" service when replacing tyres.
- Andrew , Enfield - Jul 19, 2011
Very good customer service as always, keeping me up to date with the progress via telephone. They always have time to fully explain any problems and provide a quote upfront before any work is carried out. The advice given was clear and honest and I have no hesitation in using the garage again in the future.
- James , Canterbury - Jul 18, 2011
On ordering my tyres online I got an email from Paula stating that my tyres were due in the same day as I had chosen for fitment and asked if it would be ok for the branch to call me when they arrived to avoid me turning up before the tyres. I thought this was a nice personal touch, something that rarely happens when shopping online! Thanks
- Mark , Aylesbury - Jul 17, 2011
I'll definitely use F1 again. Booking on line is a great idea and takes away a lot of the hassel!

- Roxanne , Bristol - Jul 13, 2011
"Just a quick email to comment on my visit to your depot in Leek Road, Hanley, Stoke on Trent. I visited this depot today 12th July to request a tyre inspection ahead of my cars first mot test next Monday, my n/s/f tyre needed replacing. Your staff member Matt stated that my tyre was not in stock due to a non standard wheel size, but he said that he could obtain it from another depot within 1 hour, I left the depot and returned about 50 minutes later and was delighted to see that my tyre had arrived. Matt immediately arranged for the tyre to be fitted along with wheel balancing and alignment.

I feel that is worth complimenting your staff on this excellent customer service once again. Matt was polite and extremely helpful.

The general public are quick enough to criticise but reluctant to praise companies on their excellent service.

So, well done, and I will most certainly use this branch in future, and recommend to my friends and colleagues."
- Geffrey, Stoke on Trent - Jul 13, 2011

- Michael , Portsmouth - Jul 10, 2011
I put my car in for a major service and MOT. The car was ready at the end of the day as planned. The engineers had some advisory points that they contacted me by phone to discuss. The car was then kept over night and resulted in another £400 of parts and labour. i was not pressured into having this work done but advised. I have only just brought the car home. All appears good and i am satisfied with the work and advise.
- Richard , Southend - Jul 8, 2011

- Tom , Crawley - Jul 4, 2011
"I took my car in for a Master Service at the F1 Autocentre (Southbury Road, Enfield) yesterday and I just wanted to convey my sincere thanks to the team there.

The service was excellent. The staff and regional manager were all very polite, helpful and friendly. As a loyal customer, I wanted to say that this garage is the most professional I have ever experienced. The advice the manager gave on my vehicle was clear and honest, which is always a worry that most of my friends and family (in particular female ones) have when needing to visit a garage. I shall certainly recommend F1 Autocentre in Enfield to them!

Once again, many thanks to this garage - keep up the brilliant work - it's comforting to know that there are some honest garages out there!"
- Kathy, Enfield - Jul 4, 2011

- robert , Colchester - Jun 17, 2011
"I am writing to let you know how pleased I am with Formula One in Luton, Bedfordshire. I know how people are so quick to complain although not many people will congratulate on the good service.

I have been going to Luton F1 autocentre for around 3 years now and have never had a bad experience. The assistant manager Ade is so friendly and honest and is a credit to your company, as is Shaun. When we have been in before and asked advice on what needs doing on our car, the guys have always shown us what the problem is and informed us of what will be done before they do it, (as some garages I have been to do the work and then charge me after without asking). Everybody is always so helpful and I have never really had to wait for my car to be fixed, when I have driven it down they are able to see it straight away.

We have never taken our car anywhere else since we have been to you, and do not intend to in the near future.

As we have said, we wanted to let you know ho pleased we are with your service and just basically wanted to say 'keep up the good work'."
- Mr & Mrs Rhodes, Luton - Jun 16, 2011
i go there all the time i find them very helpful iam in a wheelchair and they look after me very well there
- simon , Chatham - Jun 15, 2011
I have used Formula one on a couple of occasions now and have always recieved a good service from them. I find the prices competitive and good value and never have they persuaded me to have something done that I didnt need. Will definately continue to use them in the future.
- Kirsty , Basildon - Jun 15, 2011
Great, friendly staff who know what they are talking about. But please install free-of-charge watercoolers as I don't always want a full can of something.
- Ursula , Crewe - Jun 15, 2011
Staff are friendly, honest and professional. I feel at ease and trust that i am not being overcharged. Great garage, wouldnt go anywhere else
- Luke , Brentwood - Jun 13, 2011
Excellent service. Went with the expectation of buying a replacement item and was provided with a much cheaper option/suggestion. Cannot praise highly enough when nowadays people are very quick at taking your money, when not absolutely necessary (at the time). Although when the time does come round for a replacement F1 will be top of the list.
- Ian , Derby - Jun 13, 2011
I've been using Newport Pagnell's F1 Autocentres for all my car tyres for about four years and always find them very helpful, very quick and professional. Also a great price.

I am really happy with the service I recieved also I would recommend my friends and family to use F1, millions times better than Kwikfit.
- Munir , Harrow - Jun 9, 2011
"I wanted to email you with feedback after my recent MOT at the centre in Northampton. I booked it online and found the process very straightforward and easy. Somewhat nervous on arrival at the centre on the date booked due to bad experiences with other companies in the past, thinking I would probably encounter someone saying they knew nothing about it, I instead found a very helpful man who located my order immediately and everything proceeded smoothly.

I would like to congratulate you on the whole process, it was easy to do, worked seamlessly and led to a very satisfied customer!"
- Mrs S, Northampton - Jun 9, 2011
found the %50 offer for booking a mot online very good value in this difficult finacial time and would use this service along with any other good value services you provide again
- steven , Gloucester - Jun 8, 2011

Well done F1, I will be bringing both my vehicles back to you for my next service.
- Roger , Crawley - Jun 6, 2011
Thank you very much, you have restored my faith in garage services. The honesty of the staff and the level of service they gave was exemplary, a credit to the industry. I have no hesitation in recommending this centre. A very happy customer.
- Kevin, Maidstone - Jun 6, 2011
The staff are extremely friendly are make you very welcome, I went back to this garage because I have had work done there before. The added bonus of booking online and getting the 50% off the MOT was very unexpected because I had already decided to go back to F1 Newcastle Under Lyme. I will recommend it to others
- Dave , Newcastle - Jun 6, 2011
Excellent, friendly service. Feel I can trust F1 not to make work where it doesn't exist or need doing. I always recommend F1.
- Anthea , Norwich - Jun 6, 2011

- Noel , Peterborough - Jun 5, 2011
The brake fluid was replaced but air was still present in the system after I collected the car. I have returned the car and had the syst bled again but this did not remove all the air as the problem still exists. Manager has agreed that I can drop car I'm tomorrow for a complete system bleed so as long as this works, I will be happy with the outcome. Previous visits to F1 have provided good customer service and value for money.
- Andy , Maidstone - Jun 4, 2011
I had inadvertantly ordered the wrong tires on-line, this was soon sorted out prior to my visit to my F1 Centre a few days later. Good efficient staff at both the on-line booking and Chelmsford Essex centre. Well done keep up the good service and you will be next choice again for my tire replacement.

Very helpful staff even replaced small bulb without charge and advised on exhaust replacement.
- Peter , Crewe - May 27, 2011

- Chris , Hemel Hempstead - May 27, 2011
This is always my first choice of garage as they have helped me out of more than one problem.very helpful and willing.

- Pete , Redditch - May 27, 2011

Formula One were recommended to me by a friend who has been a customer for several years. This is the 2nd time I have used them and when an additional unscheduled matter cropped up ie worn tailgate gas struts they were very helpful in getting the parts and fitting them for me within the hour. I had expexted to be told to come back the next day so this was a pleasant surprise. At all stages I was shown any defects as well as the worn parts. Top marks!
- Peter , Basildon - May 24, 2011
I would like to express my gratitude to the level of service I received from one of your Branches. This afternoon 3rd May 2011 I went to your Canterbury Branch and had two new tyresfitted, I had also asked for an oil change. After the tyres had beenfitted the Manager (Tom) approached me. He then went on to explain to methat the type of oil filter fitted to my vehicle required an insert typefilter. He explained in his experience this type of filter housing more often than not seizes with corrosion and could present a problem.Rather than taking the risk at such a late hour in the day 16:45 andknowing the replacement part could only be obtained from a main dealerhe advised me that he was not going to take the risk with removing thepart and thus if it broke leaving me without a vehicle for a longperiod. He gave me great advice and I have booked the vehicle in foranother time. I would also like to comment on the way in which he dealtwith another customer. He was really calm and professional. Once again thank you.
- Guy, Canterbury - May 24, 2011
they provide a good service will use them again the staff were polite and helpful
- DEREK JOHN , Newcastle - May 23, 2011
Yes overall good tho my quote for tyres & alligment which were required were not cheapest so I did go elsewhere saving £60. Which is a shame would have happliy had it all done at F1 otherwise. Will still go back as I believe the staff to be knowledgeable & honest at to works required.
- faye , Bristol - May 23, 2011
I was pleased with the service. I always worry about MOTs and garages, I know very little about cars and sometimes feel that women are taken advantage of. I did not feel this here. Staff were friendly and my car felt better after the service. I paid a fortune with another gararge when I last needed an MOT for jobs they said needed doing and the car did not drive well after. So I was pleased with the way my car performed and feel that they have done a good job.
- Tammy , Wolverhampton - May 23, 2011
The staff were very helpful and speedy. I had to go and get a new rim for my car but as soon as I returned, they were ready to go with fitting my new wheel. Great value too!
- Rebecca , Cheltenham - May 23, 2011
Would definately use F1Autocentres again and would recommend to friends and family. The Crawley centre were extremely helpful and explained everything. They didnt even make me feel inferior because I was a woman. Many thanks to everyone at the Crawley Branch
- Sandra , Crawley - May 23, 2011
Just a quick e-mail to say how pleased I am with the Blackheath staff. I have been there twice in the last 2 months and have had excellent service and advice from the staff. Especially Adam. Keep up the good work...

- Nicola , Poole - May 19, 2011
Very competitive price - beat local competitors that I have used in the past. Having booked the earliest appointment available on line (approx. 5 days wait) I called at the centre the following day and left the wheel for fitting. The staff cheerfully changed wheels over for me and promised to try to expedite the order. Less than 5 hours later I was contacted to say that the tyre had been fitted to the wheel. Very pleased with the service and will now consider F1 for MOT and service work on the family cars

I am not sure if I have chosen the correct option of Stevenage site - I used the Boulton Road Fomula One in Stevenage. I have to say I am very impressed that I was told my car had passed it's mot and although it had a few advisories, I was not 'pressured' into having any of these items done by Formula One. I in fact asked if it may be a good idea for me to have the brakes done as they had come up on advisory that they were a little corroded. I was told that really there was no need whereas I know for a fact that, for example, Kwik Fit would have said they really needed to be done to gain more business. In my opinion this particular branch of Formula One is exceptional because this is the second time I have used the branch and NEVER have been told I needed something doing that didn't really need doing - I have always questioned other companies and OFTEN found that additional work stated as being necessary, is not necessary. So, all I can say is a big THANK YOU and I will continue to use this Formula One site. kIND REGARDS
