This table shows, per age, how many cars of this model fail inspection, by country. An index of 100 is that country's average for that age.
| Age | Netherlands | United Kingdom | Czechia | Ireland | NO |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0-2 years | Too few inspections | No data | No data | No data | No data |
| 3-5 years | 19.8% failed (2658 of 13423) | 13% failed (7563 of 58228) | 2.7% failed (146 of 5448) | 15.7% failed (853 of 5435) | 9.5% failed (74 of 783) |

Czechia only counts serious defects, severity B or C. The Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Norway count every inspection with a real defect.
Finland is not in this table. Finland counts defect points, not cars with a defect.
