I was once a Chav. I had a Mini 1000 which I totally modified although in fairness it looked a lot more classy than all this lexus lights crap you see nowadays.
After I sold the Mini due to insurance issues and emissions test issues (and realised how much money I lost by modding) I decided to...
Who said chavscum was the leading authority on chavs? Its just some bloke(s) who have made a website for a laugh.
Chavs have been around for donkeys years.
40 years ago young town dwellers were dressing and having their hair in a way that at the time was considered scruffy, they were also...
Er I havent slated anyone.
You lot are the ones that keep calling Chavs "thieves", "scum" and "scruffy" etc as mandy007 has just admitted.
I have just spent the last few hours defending chavs (ie you) against those insults so I definitely havent got a chip on my shoulder! Im your saviour...
Most chavs look after their car and spend a lot of money on it. As a percentage of their income they spend more on their cars than the F360 owner does on his.
A Chav is not scruffy thieving scum, 99% of them havent nicked anything in their entire lives.
As for "right so if i go and buy a...
You dont know anything about her drugs and alcohol consumption other than what you have read in newspapers and that has to be the most dubious source going.
Also I wouldnt put it past her to act drunk or spread rumours about her drinking because publicity is her bread and butter and thats what...
Any rattles or unwelcome dashboard lights yet?
All my mates said my car looks rubbish and just like a normal Clio. One of them even has a Smart Roadster lmao.
I dont get any looks other than from rude boys who want a race!
At the end of the day Jordan has a lot of money in the bank and despite being young could if she wanted retire and never do a days work again. So I would view her as successful and an achiever yet you call her a sl*g based on what you have read in news papers.
You are every bit as guilty as...
Well you should moan at the people behind chavscum if you find their remarks about your cultural group offensive.
I am saying that in my opinion you belong to a certain cultural group. That is a completely benign statement.
If someone else says that every member of that cultural group is a...
Why do you think being called a chav is "abuse"?
Its just a title used to refer to people with a certain set of interests. A cultural group.
Nothing offensive or abusive about that.
If you modify your car cosmetically then you are a chav. Some chavs just do a bit of lowering, others fit...
Correct, for it to deteriorate it has to be stored in poor conditions for quite some time and even after that the octane loss would only be in the region of 0.1 or 0.2 RON.
Whereas the anti optimax brigade are trying to make out that if you fill your tank up then by the time it gets down to...
chav culture and the modified car culture are pretty much the same thing.
Anyone with lexus lights on anything other than a lexus is a chav.
Why are those people who have been identified as a chav so offended? No one said it was a crime to be a chav?
Why would you buy a Cup for anything other than performance? The interior is absolute gash so its a bit pointless tarting up the outside when the inside looks so bad. Anyone buying a car for the image/looks or whatever would get a standard 172. The Cup is a proper track day car so purely...
They do look blue-ish which impresses chavs but in reality when going down a dark country lane or whatever they make sod all difference.
Sorry but to my eyes I just cant tell the difference.
Read my posting at 13:02. In particular consider carefully your statement about making a car look "different".
Also if the handling and ride quality are now worse than standard trim then you you have made a cosmetic mod that has compromised performance and if that aint the definition of a...
Congratulations, you were the only person that read what I said properly.
Tuning a Willy/182 or whatever is fine. The sort of thing I would expect many people to do to improve their trackday times. I can also understand your average 1.2 owner wanting a bit more power and maybe less soggy...
Anyone here whose car is unmodifed is not a chav.
Anyone with a modfied car is a chav.
If the modified car is a Valver, Willy, 172/Cup/182 then you are a just a normal chav.
If your modified car is a not one of those sports models and is instead a Dynamique or the likes then you are a...
I had two 1.2 16vs and they were flawless with the exception of rattles.
My friend got a 1.2 and it has been in and out of the dealers a good half dozen times in its first two years.
My 182 broke down before delivery and had to go back a few days after delivery to get stuff sorted. This was...
What do you expect when you live in between the two biggest chavy sh1t holes in Britain. I dont live that far away from you and I have had to resort to having CCTV and a security light covering my car at all times.
As has been said before the 182 is as quick, more practical, cheaper to run plus Tiff preferred the Mk1 172 to the V6 let alone the massively improved 182.
The warranty is worth its weight in gold and Id rather have a new car over a second hand one anyday.
If they did a proper hard top version like the Exige I would!!!
Thats one area where I do prefer the V6.
The Exige is a rip off and not as reliable as the VX. I will never as long as I live pay a premium for a badge.
Yeah but why dont you just get a basic 1.2 Fiesta? You cant even use the performance of the 182 on the road without putting yourself at risk of getting nicked or hurting someone.
Same applies to owning a super car too. Its knowing that it CAN do something rather than actually doing it.
A bit...
