Dare I say it - is a scooby now a chav-motor??

Ok, not saying all scooby owners are chavs - far far from it.
Have noticed a lot of burberry caps driving '95 wrx etc.
In fact out with a pal in his evo 320FQ - and a moron in a 94 wrx drove 2 feet off his chuff for 2miles and then gave the t**ser sign as he went passed. Totally unprovoked and he was wearing a burberry cap. Would have thought a fellow scooby driver would have more respect for such a car.
Dont get me wrong - I have a scooby - but noticed a drop in the "standard" of driver recently.
Comments??

Thing is.
The old shape is now quite affordable to many boy racers.
People putting the likes of dump valves on them to sound like a lorry doesn't help either.

If people are constantly on and on about "chavs" and "scoobs" then yes they will become a chav car.
I have said before and said again, if a younger person works as hard as i had to to buy mine then good luck to him.
Just because a driver is under say 25 does not make him a chav, I'm sure not many people know what the hell a chav is, and just refer to any young person as one. Im 25, was 24 when i got my scoob. Was driving a Lotus when i was 23 etc. Does that make me a chav??
LIGHTEN UP!

I'm picking mine up on Sat morning, and as I speak as the weather has cleared up I'm just off to scout some washing lines to rob a burberry hat, paul and shark t-shirt, reebok jog pants and rockports from someones porch.
**** I nearly forgot the white sports spock to tuck my jog pants in, and the kappa hooded top I happy slapped someone for someone last week
I'm going to Argos tomorrow for a big **** off gold chain for a tenner and then
on Friday night I'll find myself a gormless looking underage spotty slag with 2 kids to **** illegally (but I'm a gentleman chav, I'll wait until she's finished her stelloh), and most importantly sit in the front of my mint car looking at me like a god cos i'm getting the ultimate chavmobile.
By then the uniform will be complete and I shouldn't get as many funny looks when I walk in the dealers to pick up the scooby as I did last time when I walked in with my suit on!
The first thing I'll do when I turn the keys is ask where the fog light switches are and the press the front ones on and pull the switch off or tape it up so I dont need to worry about turning it off.
And then, when I finally get home I'm going to reflect on why I sold the Z4 for this easily dented, worse than a leon cupra r, worse than a clio 172, slower than a fuking 1.3 Nova SR, badly engineered chav mobile.
I will probably remember when I've got through the first couple of thousand miles, when all the above are eating my dust. Thats if nobody breaks into my house in the meantime and nicks the ******. lol

Seriously though, whatever you buy (or I buy) I get **** for.
I work very hard all week to have a nice house, nice car and keep the Mrs happy.
In the last few years whenever I have bought a car, the comments have been:
Impreza: You'll look like a right ******
Z4: Its a bit gay isnt it
VX220 Turbo: What the **** is that, its a vauxhall you tosser
Fiat Stilo Abarth (all comments valid) - I am a ****!!!!! but still a decent car.
Yet a mate has just bought a clio 182 cup and people seem to think he has bought some sort of motoring icon. Granted its a decent motor but for me it... its a clio ffs.
Every performance/prestige car, no matter how good is given a stereotype by brainless morons who haven't ever seen owning one until it is at least 5 years old cos they are busy pissing their money up against a wall.
Unfortunately, the classic scoob is simply now becoming a victim of its own success and popularity and all impreza drivers are being laughed at by association.
Personally I couldnt give a rats **** what anyone thinks (unless they are thinking they would like to rob it lol), plenty of other cars are just the same.

AND doesn't Daniella Westbrook drive a new Range Rover and a Z4? So do Range Rover / Z4 owners worry that people may associate them with her?

If I had £60k to spend on a car, i couldn't give a toss what anyone thinks. At the end of the day its jealousy, just like someone who can only afford a £12k clio is jealous of a scooby costing twice as much.

The Scoob (by default) is not a chav car and having a scoob does not make the owner a chav
... but ... you can
(a) be a chav a have a Scoob (cue owner with Burberry, Lizzie Duke, sport socks, white adi trainers, 1 whole tub of gel in short hair combed forward, lovely ear rings (I thought they were for girls
) etc etc)
(b) Make your scoob look like a chav mobile (cue Lexus lights
mahoosive exhaust pipe, lots of stupid F&F stickers and graphics, bling bling alloys, poor bodykits etc etc)
(c) Both (a) and (b)
which seems now to be quite a common sight ![Frown](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/frown.gif)
.... you can though look 'normal' and drive a nice scoob either standard or tastefully modded (i.e. PPP or PHP or some nice prodrive (not FOX
) alloys).
IMHO you do not have a chav car whether it's a classic, bug, blob, or abomination that is the MY06
.. it's what you do to it that can make it 'chav'.
I drive a standard MY05 wagon and had an MY00 wagon before. I still sometimes hanker after a classic PPP car with PD7's![Big Grin](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

This looks like a car driven by a Chav then does it?
![](http://www.slotforum.com/forums/uploads/1113835738/gallery_1222_96_85662.jpg)
Seems to suit the scoobynet profile of "Chav" quite nicely. The kiddie in the background is mine. Had her before I was 25 and out of wedlock. My GF missed out being a teenage bride by only 3 months!!! We only have 1 child, not 7 so we are a little behind at the moment.
