Answer 13

Many TV programs like top gear and 5th gear often comment on what NCAP rating whatever car they are testing has. As a result some drivers have most likely checked what rating their car has, however I would think that only if a persons car is tested on such program would the average driver know their car's NCAP, having watched the program. It's unlikley drivers of older cars would take the time out to check their car. But drivers of new cars would want to know what they got for their money and would mostlikley check beforehand, after all spending about £9,000 on something you would want to know what you get for it.
