Skoda came out on top in the Used Small Car category at the Car Dealer Used Car Awards 2025.

Judges voted for the Czech-branded supermini on account of its all-round appeal, dependability and ease-of-use.

Awards host Mike Brewer said: ‘Whether it’s someone’s first set of wheels, a trusty runaround or a dependable car everyone can swear by, the Skoda Fabia is a truly excellent little car. It’s also a car that dealers love as there’s always a customer for it.’

Car Dealer editor-in-chief James Baggott added: ‘The Fabia is one of the most complete small cars available – it just does everything so very well. It’s comfortable, easy to drive, excellent value, and delivers everything most people need from a small car without the high price tag.’

Collecting the award from Mark Docherty from category sponsor Autoglym, Ben Roach, national used car manager for Skoda UK, said: ‘It feels great. We are super proud.

‘This is the second time in two years that I have stood here having won a Used Car Award so this really is a fruitful ceremony for us!’
