Too few inspections

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.

100 is that country's average for that age.
