Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Easy booking, good prices

very straightforward to order and book online. However, I would have preferred to have available calendar to be viewable earlier in the process. Good prices when compared to other local tyre centres

Damaged tyre on car whilst in Ashford

Damaged tyre on car whilst in Ashford. Called into Formula One Autocentre. They did not have a tyre for my particular car in stock but very kindly agreed to fit the spare wheel to enable me to travel home. Staff very considerate, professional and helpful. Greatly appreciate all the assistance given.
