Why buy a Skoda in Ghana?
Skoda cars appeal to families, business owners and anyone who regularly drives outside the city, where the extra ground clearance handles potholes, speed ramps and untarred roads. Higher ground clearance makes Accra's flooded streets in the rainy season and the rough feeder roads outside the regional capitals much easier to manage.
Resale depends heavily on condition and service history.

Foreign used, Ghana used or brand new Skoda?
Foreign used Skoda cars, imported from the US, Europe, Canada, Korea or Dubai, are the most common choice. They usually have lower mileage and fewer repairs than Ghana used cars, but you must check the import history and confirm that duty has been paid at the Ghana Revenue Authority.
Ghana used Skoda cars are cheaper and ready to drive, but inspect them carefully for local wear. Brand new Skoda cars come with a warranty and dealer service, which makes them the safest choice if your budget allows.
