It seems ancestrydna gives almost all Europeans a low amount of Middle East and caucasus

Yea honestly AncestryDNA doesn't make too much sense to me, at least certain regions with overlaps. My father is essentially 100% English by ancestry with some minor Dutch and he got:

Europe West 52%
Ireland/Scotland/Wales 28%
Scandinavia 10%
Great Britain 3%

Also the Europe West category seems too broad, I mean southern Danes and Basques are both included and I don't see too great of a relation between the two.

I think the results are pretty accurate but from what I know Ancestry is very vague in what counts as what region, so it missed any details. At least they give you the raw DNA.
