Valvers - Chav mobiles?

[The Hoff]

The last 4/5 Valvers I've seen have sadly been full of chavvy spotty kids with hideous exhausts and usually suffering from other ailments, washer jet LED anyone?

Sad to say, but they really are up there with the Corsas/Saxos it seems. Guess all 'good' cars end up with a similar following once they're cheap enough.

Not aimed at rattling any Valver owners on here mind.

 

[Rob's172]

ph1 172 are gettin that way as well, the ph2 wont be that far behind:dapprove:

i't will happen to most good/fun car when they are cheap enough

 

[lewisniven]

hmm, ive seen a few, they wont be as common as saxos purely cuz they cost too much to insure.

 

[Wilkeh]

try to keep mine looking as standard as possible. I know what your getting at, seen a couple of william's full of caps and hardcore music!!

 

[Final Maxim]

let ww24 commence.

**Pats Back** Dont worry matey, im sure they were all replica's

 

[White16valver]

The good ones are obvious though

I remember when I was with the ex we'd see some bloke of about 60 driving his mint naples valver the other way at about the same point each day - it's not the car that's chav, it's the driver!

 

[_Tom]

I have to say there never used to be any valvers around my way but two have just come on the scene. Both gash! I think one only has second gear or thats all he seems to use....

 

[lewisniven]

corsas are the main offenders round my way, plus the usuals, 106's, saxos etc.

I might go on a chav hunt round my way at some point and get pics of the best (worst) ones, lol.

my best friends sister is going out with a 17 year old that drives an absolute gem, ill get pics soon, you lot will love it

 

[tommyboy]

It's because it's all they can afford!

 

[_Tom]

Infact, my old old valver was a chav mobil! pmsl!

Ccccheck the 17's!

 

[lewisniven]

^^seen far worse bud.

 

[cat171]

I haven't seen any valvers for ages, apart from a mint J reg one the other day, that's been it for a long time.

- Tom your valver wasn't chav at all, I thought it was a great example of one.

 

[lewisniven]

theyre getting rarer tho arent they?

if u think about it u dont see many about in general, they are pretty rare for what they are.

[Wilkeh]

Rare for a reason, and owned by 'special' people

 

[lewisniven]

my mummy always tells me im special.

 

[duncansharp]

Unfortunately happens to most hot hatches.

Hopefully (for me) the 172 cup's higher insurance will keep chavs away

What he ^^^ said

 

[lisa16v]

thats why you hardly see any around because a 17year old can get insured on it and they end up riting it off, sad realy

 

[Stryker]

hardly see any tbh recently though been seeing s**t loads of Saxo Vtr's

 

[AmirClio]

I dont see any round leicester, although i no people that own them! lisa, Brad.

How can a 17 year old get insured on one ? They're group 12 so not exactly the price of a 1.3 fiesta to insure.

 

[lewisniven]

group 12 for a valver???

fook me, the willy is group 17!!!!

 

[Neil G]

I thought a valver would be more than group 12...probably 15/16 so still expensive to insure.

Lots of chavved up 1.2/1.4 clios around though

It was very clean and my hybrid made up for it imo...

Neil, yep valvers are group 12.

 

[16vfan]

willky1107 has one so they have got to be a chav mobile :race:

I'm very surprised at that....I'm sure my old Renault 19 16v was a higher group than that.

Oh well, at least the 172/182 is a higher insurance group so will stay more out of reach of the scrotes.

 

[scala]

Sorry, but even the "valver" curruption sounds totally chav to me.

 

[Clart]

valvers chav wagons? get a life

 

[Wilkeh]

Yup Group 12, i had mine when I was 18 though, has an RSi as my first car aged 17! There group 11!

 

[slowan]

I see more standard valvers tbh....the chavs can only manage an RT or an RN

I'm with you now.

 

[greglesueur]

Theres a few round notts, all tastefully modded ..valvers are to rare, and expensive to insure for chavs lol

 

[edde]

There enough fakes out there though.

 

[lewisniven]

yeah, lots of lower models are dressed up to look liek valvers, real ones still have amazing road presence tho and still look great.

not to mention fly!

 

[greglesueur]

Agreed
