Mobile mechanic in Aylesbury , 8 years of experience

Vehicles are a life passion of mine, i have been working on engines, cars, bikes and vans from my early teens and have developed an amazing set of skills and knowledge.

“I'm sorry I can't comment on the quality of the work as I was not present during the inspection. However I can't fault the punctuality or the communication. I had trouble with the booking form which cost me extra over the published price but wasn't informed until the last minute. I,m 100 miles away from the seller so perhaps the booking form could be made a little more user friendly? Or am I the only one who had a problem?? On the plus side I was pleased with the quick resolution.”

“I'm very pleased with Henry, the mechanic who did a pre-purchase inspection for me. Communication was excellent before and after the inspection. He rang me afterwards as well as sending the report. He seems very experienced and was really good at explaining things to me, not rushed at all.
I felt very confident in him and that he did a thorough inspection. Lucky for me it was good news with the car and no real issues. Couldn't be better! I definitely recommend Henry and clickmechanic.”

Frequently asked questions about Skoda pre-purchase inspections

Read our answers to questions about pre-purchase inspection costs, symptoms and more.

I plan to buy a used Skoda - do I need a pre-purchase inspection?

A pre-purchase inspection done by an experienced mechanic on the Skoda you are considering buying spares you the headache and saves the time of checking the vehicle over yourself. The mechanics on our network know what signs to lookout for, potentially helping you avoid future large repair bills.

We have a comprehensive checklist that the mechanic goes through, and they will provide you with a detailed email report and a follow-up call describing the state of the vehicle (if applicable).

Customers value the pre-purchase inspection report they receive from their mechanics. The report will help you make a decision and possibly assist with negotiating price.

A Premium pre-purchase inspection is one of the most popular choices amongst ClickMechanic customers when it comes to checking a used Skoda car before the sale. We currently have 100s of mechanics doing pre-purchase inspections across the ClickMechanic network.

What happens during a pre-purchase inspection on Skoda?

If you book a pre-purchase inspection with ClickMechanic, a vetted mechanic who carries out inspections on Skoda will inspect the car you intend to purchase. Depending on the level of inspection booked (basic, standard or premium), the mechanic will spend up to 3 hours assessing the condition of the vehicle.

When inspecting a used Skoda, mechanics check the interior, lights, fluid levels, brakes and suspension, chassis and car underside (subject to service level booked). All our inspection checklists include a road test to examine the condition of important safety features such as the steering and braking, and give a clear idea whether the vehicle is roadworthy.

I have booked a used Skoda inspection - do I have to be present?

No, there is no need for you to be present during the inspection. Our pre-purchase inspection service is popular with customers wanting to have a professional assessment of a used car they are purchasing e.g. while they are abroad.

You will receive a report about the condition of the car after the inspection is complete and if you wish you will be able to discuss with the mechanic over the phone afterwards (depending on level of service booked).

Does the Skoda pre-purchase inspection come with a warranty?

Our pre-purchase inspections of used Skoda vehicles do not come with a warranty. The main purpose of inspecting a used Skoda before the sale is to give you an honest and true reflection of the state of the vehicle at the time of inspection.

Can I book a follow up appointment for my Skoda?

Following your used Skoda car inspection, if you decided to purchase the Skoda we recommend having it serviced by one of the mechanics on our network. That way you can ensure you are off to a good start and your car is ready for your future journeys together.

If there is any issues that needs fixing speak to the mechanic who will do the inspection to get a quote and book a follow up through ClickMechanic.
