Always correct for age. A group of younger cars is not automatically more reliable
9 to 11 years: 504 inspections
Official inspection point: Lighting and electrical equipment

Insurance rating class (Germany)
Always correct for age. A group of younger cars is not automatically more reliable

Inspections by country and age
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 | No data | No data | No data | No data | No data |
| 3-5 years | 34.2% failed (3606 of 10556) | No data | No data | No data | No data |
| 6-8 years | 37.6% failed (15333 of 40735) | No data | No data | Too few inspections | No data |
| 9-11 years | 37.5% failed (4946 of 13177) | No data | No data | Too few inspections | No data |
| 12-14 years | No data | No data | No data | No data | No data |

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.
