Free Skoda car check
Skoda shares VW Group engineering at a friendlier price, and the Octavia and Fabia are sensible, spacious used buys. A check confirms a clean record behind the value.
Free MOT, mileage and DVLA data from official UK government records
What a free Skoda check shows
Full MOT history
Every test, pass or fail, with advisories and the recorded mileage at each one.
Mileage & clocking
The mileage timeline, with any drop between tests flagged as possible clocking.
Tax & recalls
Current tax status and any outstanding manufacturer safety recall.
DVLA details
Make, model, year, fuel, engine, CO2, colour and V5C logbook date.
What to check on a used Skoda
- DSG gearboxes: look for fluid-change history on higher-mileage cars.
- Many ex-fleet and ex-private-hire Octavias, so confirm the mileage timeline.
- Check diesel emissions-related advisories on the MOT.
