Approved Used explained

What benefits are included?
Skoda has undergone a remarkable transformation since becoming part of the Volkswagen Group in the early 1990s.
Once mocked, it's now a widely admired brand thanks to its reputation for building reliable, practical and superb-value cars. Models such as the Skoda Octavia, Karoq and Kodiaq regularly outperform rivals in reviews thanks to their excellent space, comfortable driving experience, and competitive pricing.
If you’re looking for a great deal on a Skoda, the Approved Used scheme is an excellent place to start. Not only do you get a competitively priced car, but you also benefit from a manufacturer-backed warranty, roadside assistance, and rigorous quality checks. It’s a great way to secure peace of mind without paying new-car prices.

- 100-point check and road test before sale

What warranty do Skoda Approved Used cars come with?
All Approved Used Skodas are supplied with a 12-month unlimited-mileage warranty, and if the vehicle is still within its original three-year factory warranty, the cover continues seamlessly. This warranty protects you against most mechanical and electrical faults in the same way that it would if you were buyuing a brand-new car.
Is there MOT cover with Approved Used Skodas?
Yes. The Approved Used programme includes MOT test cover for the first 12 months, which means that if your car fails its MOT, Skoda will pay up to £750 towards the cost of repairs, although you'll have to pay the first £10 of any claim.
Is there an inspection with Approved Used Skodas?
All cars get a comprehensive 100-point inspection and test drive before being certified as Approved Used. The inspection covers everything from safety systems and tyres to interior fittings and the infotainment system. You'll get a written report with the car so you know exactly what’s been checked.
Do Skoda Approved Used cars come with a history check?
Yes, all cars are run through a complete history check that verifies mileage, ownership, accident status and whether there's any outstanding finance. Skoda also ensures that every car has a fully documented main-dealer service history.
Is there an exchange policy with Approved Used Skodas?
There is. If you encounter a fault or are unhappy with your purchase, for whatever reason, you can exchange the vehicle within 30 days or 1000 miles, whichever comes first. You’ll need to return the car in its original condition and can choose another car of the same value (or pay the difference for a more expensive model).
Are there any extras included with Skoda Approved Used cars?
Alongside the core warranty and inspection benefits, Skoda offers five days of complimentary insurance, roadside assistance valid across the UK and Europe, and the option of fixed-price servicing. In some cases, you could also be eligible for insurance at a fixed price for three years, depending on the model’s age and specification.
Which Skoda is right for me?
Skoda has a wide range of cars to suit all manner of different needs, from small city runabouts to full-size family movers. The Citigo city car remains a top choice for frugal driving around town, while the Fabia hatchback gives you more space and comfort than rivals in the supermini class. The Scala is excellent value with generous standard equipment and a composed ride, making it a fantastic alternative to traditional hatchbacks. The Octavia, meanwhile, is one of the best-value family cars on sale, with a cavernous boot and refined engines. At the top of the line-up, the Superb delivers a near-luxury experience with limousine-rivalling rear space and excellent long-distance comfort.
SUV buyers are equally well catered for. The Kamiq is the go-to choice for small families and those who do a lot of urban driving, while the Karoq blends relatively compact dimensions with family practicality. The seven-seater Kodiaq will give you a tonne of versatility and a premium-feeling cabin. Skoda has also continued to expand its electric offering, with the Enyaq leading the charge – it provides up to 359 miles of range (depending on the version), high-quality materials, and plenty of tech. The Elroq is a smaller car that slots in below the Enyaq to offer a more compact electric SUV alternative that could be ideal if you're a city-based families or commuters.
Older models, which still make excellent used buys, include the fantastically practical Yeti and Roomster, as well as the value-for-money Rapid model.
Key to the Skoda's appeal are the “Simply Clever” innovations that you’ll find on every car. It started with a small clip to hold your car park ticket against the windscreen back in the early 2000s, but now you’ll find – depending on the model – a handy ice scraper behind the fuel filler cap, a concealed compact umbrella and clever ways of storing and keeping your stuff safe.
Tell me something I don’t know about Skoda
Skoda’s winged arrow badge represents speed, precision and progress. The company began life as Laurin & Klement in 1895, originally making bicycles, then motorcycles and cars. The Laurin & Klement name still lives on in Skoda’s most luxurious trim levels.

What used Skoda models are for sale on heycar?
You're spoilt for choice with every type of modern Skoda listed for sale, including:
The Skoda Yeti has built up a loyal following for good reason. It’s one of the original small SUVs and combines sharp handling with off-road-inspired styling and impressive practicality. Some versions come with four-wheel drive, and all are comfortable, practical and great value on the used market. It’s not the newest model on sale, but it's still a smart buy.
There isn't really a bad Skoda. If you're looking for a small car, the Fabia is excellent, while the Scala offers a little more space. The Octavia is the go-to for families, offering loads of room and efficient engines. Need seven seats? Go for the Kodiaq. Long-distance commuter? The Superb offers limo-like comfort. And if it’s zero-emissions you’re after, the Enyaq is one of the most capable electric SUVs around.
Skoda generally performs well in customer satisfaction and reliability surveys, regularly appearing near the top of ownership polls. While some issues have been reported – such as DPF (diesel particulate filter) concerns on older diesels and occasional problems with DSG gearboxes – the majority of owners report strong reliability and low running costs. Thanks to their Volkswagen Group underpinnings, Skodas often share proven components with models from Audi, VW and SEAT, further supporting their reputation for dependability.
