Went to this garage as had the car, mileage, age I was looking for, agreed deal, paid deposit of £1000 be aware non refundable. Agreed price for trade in, sold as seen as they say in trade, 1800. Following week picked up car, left mine, then received texts. My trade in 20 years old car, wanted proof serviced, mot, history on line, don’t provide then we will take car back did not provide this for me asked but said it would be in the post . Wife heart condition gets all upset, never experienced any thing like this ever when buying selling car, accused of clocking 2 thousand miles when obvious a typo, in mot history.. I would not go to Formula One Car Centre or recommend it unless you like dealing with.

The worst car dealer I've ever known. Car not as described, countless faults, Pre delivery inspection nothing but a joke Zero after sales service - couldn't care less attitude. Utter cowboy outfit. Don't go anywhere near them

I was looking for a specific towing car. I bought a Kia from Formula One Car Centre. At all times the sales men were helpful, efficient and courteous. The car was serviced, a new tyre put on, new MOT and it was just what I wanted. I am really pleased with the car. My only gripe was why on earth did they not put diesel in the car, at least enough to get the 30 miles home! I was seriously worried that I would run out of gas on the motorway home. Not a good start which somewhat clouded an excellent buying experience

I put a £1000 down towards but circumstances changed ,they then told me that they had to fix stuff on there car to pass the mot And tried using that as an excuse ,and all there cars are the same in that sense sitting needing work done to them ,but they never tell you what the fixes were just used the word remedial ,I didn’t expect the whole deposit back ,but at least expect half of it back . I was made to feel if I didn’t go through with the it that the salesman would loose his job ,

I would like to add to this by saying why I always go back to Formula One for a newer car. They are very pleasant and try to give you the best deal and give you a selection of cars available to suit your requirements. They make you feel welcome and even though you may moan and dither a bit they still smile all the way through and do their very best to please you. Thank you very much boys eg Boyd and George. Hope to see you again in the future.

I purchased my car from Formula 1 Car Centre a few weeks ago the salesperson I dealt with was Boyd. Being a second-hand car there is always something that goes wrong but its how the garage deals with it that determines if you use them again or if recommend them to others. My experience was a bit annoying, I picked up my car and it developed a noise the next day. I was asked to return the car immediately and it was fixed within 30 minutes, the noise came back the next day and again I was asked to bring it straight in, I was given a courtesy car and asked to leave it to enable them to evaluate thoroughly. This problem went on for a few days and they ended up taking it to the Jeep garage to have it thoroughly tested, it was repaired and returned to me within a few days. Not once did I get ignored, nor did they try to give me excuses not to fix the car. They dealt with the problem head-on and got it resolved so that I, the customer was satisfied with the service and outcome. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in buying another car from Formula 1. I highly recommend them for professionalism and customer satisfaction.

Recently bought a car from formula 1 Falkirk and had nothing but problems with the car not being repaired before and after I bought it. Grant told me there was two keys lone behold as soon as the money is in their hands theres only 1 set and I'm constantly being fobbed off by all of them.

Bought a car from the Formula one car centre which had numerous serious faults as soon as I got it. Was back in the garage 6 times to have the same issues fixed. Ended up having to take it to an independent garage for a diagnostics test. Thy found 17 different faults with the car and refused to allow me to leave the garage in i as there was a serious risk to life. A bolt was broken on the suspension bridge going to one of the wheels. Finance company agreed to a formal rejection of the vehicle. However Formula 1 then refused to pay me back a large deposit I had paid for the car. Currently fighting my case through the financial ombudsman.
