Used Škoda models are generally regarded as dependable choices, with the brand placing above many rivals in recent reliability surveys. According to the latest What Car? survey, Škoda as a brand ranked 13th out of 31 manufacturers, ahead of other volume-market marques like Audi and Volkswagen. Several Škoda models, such as older petrol Octavias and Karoqs, score very high reliability ratings, with many faults being minor and easily fixed.
That said, as with any used car purchase, reliability can vary by model year, maintenance history and specific vehicle condition. Regular servicing and a full service history can make a significant difference to long-term reliability and ownership satisfaction.
The price of a used Škoda depends on several factors, including the model, trim level, age, mileage and overall condition of the vehicle, as well as any optional features it was originally supplied with. Availability and current market demand can also play a part, and from time to time you may be able to benefit from special offers or promotions on selected used Škoda models.

High mileage for any vehicle — including a Škoda — is usually considered to be more than 12,000 miles per year since first registration. For example, a three-year-old Škoda would typically be classed as high mileage if it has covered more than 36,000–40,000 miles.
That said, many Škoda models are engineered for durability and are capable of covering far higher mileages when properly maintained. A full service history, careful ownership and regular servicing are often more important than the number on the odometer when judging a used car’s condition and long-term reliability.
