Whats classed as 'chavy' ??

[Babypaws]

Okay so how can you possibly tell whats 'chavy' and whats not? Surely its everyone to their own?

Personal opinion... Lexus lights and huge stickers up the rear sides of your car is waaaay chavy!

Thoughts?

ps sorry if you have these.

[Prickle]

People class everything as chavvy all of a sudden.

Bandwagon galore.

Edit; Did you race that MG then?

[Peter_D]

*yawn*

[Babypaws]

Nope not yet :D .... Got told it was rather chavy asking on Saxperience about the performance between to cars.. Woopsie. If im honest im still trying to get the hang of this business.

Iv decided my cars my new project :) thing is, everything needs either changing or fixing, so..... every tiny detail, scratch and so on annoys me dammit!!

I have a lot to learn and its going to take me a wile but im in it for the long run... hence asking whats chavy and whats not. :D

two* Sorry!

[LVC]

All down to personal opinion based usually on current fashion trends - do what you like and don't worry what the others think otherwise you just become a sheep and follow the rest.

[JamesR]

Car wise?

Lexus lights, 5" exhaust, poorly fitted bodykit, badly done tints, chrome alloys

Basically anythingh that looks cheap and nasty = Chav tbh

[Carlvtr88]

Chavvy is skinny dickheads in hoodies and tracksuits, lurking outside the Job Centre, with an aggressive staff on a lead, with a spliff in one hand and his Giro in the other.

People who drive evo's on traders policies, barely big enough to see over the wheel, fag in one hand, phone in the other, overtaking people like they have somewhere important to be !

Dickheads lurking round at night in hoodies doing fuck all useful.

Dickheads who walk in to a shop with a hood up then get all defensive when someone anticipates they might be a theif, Its simple, if your not take your fuckin hood off if you dont want the attention.....


And thats just a few examples. Apparently i'm one though cause i have mud guards.....

Does if you're in a black airmax tracksuit and kick it / make it bite wood and fight with other dogs and then use it to try and intimidate people outside the local shop.

If you own it as a pet and to care for and have as a companion then I agree with you.

In all fairness, my Ripspeed DVD732b that I picked up 2nd hand for £20 was a decent little head unit, never let me down and looked smart enough in my Clio/Astra. I don't claim to be an audiophile or anything, but was definitely miles better than the respective standard ones!

What you said.

[raul0]

I used to have lexus lights on mine for about a month when i first got it. Bought them for about 40 quid then after a month I hated them and did think they were chavy. Can't even get a 5er for them now lol. I guess alot make that mistake when buyin there first saxo and start looking for different lights. I don't associate lexus lights with chavs now though I just think they've made a mistake buying them like i did and they'll come to relise :y:. Everyone has different style though and if they like it then just go with it, like others have said it dosnt matter what people think as long as you think it looks good.

Why would you buy a car that is 'Chavvy' then tone it down? Surely you'd just by a normal 1.1 ?

[Ashleyp]

I'd say that euro / track looks are more 'chavvy' than body kits these days.

every cunt has fake split rims, a supershit exhaust and no back seats.

In general, it's the owners that make a car chavtastic, not the car itself. obviously though, those owners tend to lean more to tacky mods.

[Prickle]

You BOUGHT the car then BROUGHT it home.

[Mochachino]

A chav car is looks over function, making your car look like something it isnt because they cant afford to do it properly ('track cars'). Then the old school untastful shit mods like big exhausts, lights, cheap tat and *look at me* stuff!

Tastful to me is a more standard look, or everything for a purpose other than looks, but looks good at the same time.

[jones91]

In my opinion, cars similar to this is kind of chavvy, I know it's not a Saxo but still

http://img.tapatalk.com/1f553885-95e7-734c.jpg

[DeanAngell1234]

In my eyes a Saxo should be lowered, a 2" exhaust, Sprayed alloys either vtr or vts, Black badges, Smoked lights all round. I like them subtle, but that's my own personal opinion, spoilers and bodykits don't do it for me I'm afraid!

What you've just descibed is the modern day 'chav' ride though.

people always say "i don't like body kits because they're chavvy", whilst somewhat true, you see more twats these days rocking 'subtle' mods.

Anyone that says a 2" exhaust doesn't sound chavvy either needs to sort themselves out.

[MiniGibbo]

[Babypaws]

The thread is regarding what is classed as chavvy, thus would contain both looks and sounds.

[Prickle]

:homme:

[jage]

corsa b's and c's arent "chavvy" imo.

Id say its more of what the scene is currently. A lot of people with "euro" cars are chavs. Theres a polo round here on some fake wheels lowereed 15mm and apparently it is "mega low lykk" and his facebook says that he loves the euro life haha! Then theres a corsa thats got its wheels 5inches or so out the car; idiots!

[Babypaws]

[Gandi699]

Kev or Ned is a better word than chav

[L20VTS]

Most of the population these days it seems lol.

However chav cars I'd class as things with lexus lights, big spoilers that aren't meant for that type of car, un-purposeful air vents. Loads of stickers. The list could go on.

[GTuff]

Lexus lights, 5" exhaust, poorly fitted bodykit, badly done tints, chrome alloys

everything i love

[MontyCV3]

I have monster stickers :D

sweet! mine came with the bonnet i had to buy after i bought the car following a dink on the front end...

unfortunately it also came with an active vent to feed the induction kit on the car the bonnet came off.

and soon mine! :P

[MontyCV3]

ouch dude.. that hurt :P

I like where this thread is going... every single cunt these days has stupid stickers, BBS LM reps or equivalent, stretched tyres and epic lows playa ballin' wanker.

My car gets called chavvy quite a lot... I can live with it, it isn't subtle and I don't want it to be. All the mods are Nismo though so it's all Nissan at the end of the day.

Only one i actually dont like is on the windscreen.

[xxo0pko0xx]

to me chavvy would be anything that doesnt flow with the shape off the body. ie a 5" exhaust on a micra, or a huge eadical body kit on a corsa.
nice modifying to me is modifying the standard features, ie smoothing over foglamps, colourcoding bumper strips, smoothing over a saxos grill and givibg it a evil eye approach is another thing i.adore.

Some people's views of 'Chavvy' are different to others'. When it comes to cars, I'd say do whatever makes you happy. I don't personally like lexus lights and 4" quad exhausts but if that's what floats your boat then cool. However I think anyone that wears Nike jogging bottoms anywhere other than about the house or nipping up the road is a bit of a berk.
