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 | 28% failed (2655 of 9481) | 12.8% failed (2741 of 21449) | No data | 18.2% failed (210 of 1152) | 26.6% failed (1661 of 6245) |

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.
