Can't quite get my head round the word chav.

Is it a Nova driver? is it a town centre driver? is it someone driving a car which is inferior to yours (in your opinion?)

Its just I here it being used all the time and im not convinced I know what it means?

Am I considered a chav by porsche owners coz i drive a modifed scoob which is inferior to their cars...... and if not then am i considered a chav when i take my track day pug 205 out, coz it has stickers and stuff on it.

Sorry for being thick but I cant get my head round it ........

Unless of course its anyone STILL driving with an England flag flying in which case I understand 100%

Anyone with private plates

Nothing to do with what car you own mate, unless it has crap taste modifications, such as:

Massive Exhaust (Over 4")
Stupid body kits
Flamers (sorry, that is chav)

Chav is Bling - showing people what you have (and showing them you have no taste).

Isn't chav-ness something that comes from adopting a certain (lack of)style? You know like the Beckhams are the chav king and queen yet are stinking rich. The burberry capped young ned you see hanging around the local Spar shop is also a chav but at a different end of the scale.

davyboy

Big gold chains is chav - especially when worn outside of garments.

davyboy

Has anyone got any photos of JAE?

I reckon we could do some chav spotting!

i know a few guy's who wear big gold chains outside their top's and i dare you to call them a chav

i'd give you 5 seconds to live

MadMark

**** Orff ....

davyboy

Have to agree.....a little bit look at me.

Guilty as charged!

MadMark

That they are highly agressive doesn't detract from the fact that they are still chavs .......

JDM

That they'd react with violence confirms along with the gold chains that the men you know are indeed chavs.

I'd call them a chav and then run and I doubt they'd keep up 'cos lots of chavs seem to smoke and be overweight.

MadMark

Only the ones where they are mis spaced so that you can read them!

How do you pronounce "chav"? Is it CH for Chaltnhem or CH for chivalry?

The word chav can be used to refer to absolutely anything that isnt Prim Proper Posh or hoitey effin toite!
Eg - Someone is on the dole, doesnt drive wears a tracksuit could be seen as a chav who earns 12k a year and drives a done up nova who could be seen as a chav by someone who earns 20k a year, drives a 97 Impreza who could be seen as a chav to someone on 50k a year who drives a 350z who is could be seen as a and so on and so on.
Ive documented before what a sad term it seems to be (IMO) that thankfully doesnt appear to have hit the north west in a big way (yet)...
Personally I prefer the word "****" if calling someone for (in my eyes) being scum - its no more no less generic/specific and allows more vigour in its pronunciation. The word chav should be banned forever - its soooo soooo sad....
