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 | 33.6% failed (1721 of 5121) | No data | No data | No data | No data |
| 3-5 years | 34.4% failed (7282 of 21175) | 19.1% failed (3422 of 17879) | 4.4% failed (75 of 1694) | 36.9% failed (76 of 206) | Too few inspections |
| 6-8 years | 38.6% failed (10950 of 28394) | 25.7% failed (8702 of 33889) | 4.5% failed (261 of 5867) | 50% failed (310 of 620) | 43.5% failed (145 of 333) |
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.
