Default The most Chav-like car you have ever owned???

The law of averages says that lots of people on here MUST have owned Chav cars over the years. Was it the obligatory white Nova when you were younger? Or perhaps you were a fan of LED washer jets and neon lights? Either way i want to know the Chavest car you have ever owned.

And some pictures wouldnt go amiss either.....

An impreza turbo.


Because the others were stock 205 GTis, and the first was a Dutton Phaeton.



Tiggs, you BMW driver, you had to push in front!

Two tone 1400cc mini 1971 vintage...... and was it two tone top and bottom??? oh no it was diagonally two tone black and gold ... proper tinted windows. Used to be deadily to push bikes when the sun was going down, couldnt see a thing.......... Had no reverse gear. Used to be careful where I parked it coz sometimes i would end up having to push it out of spaces. Passenger door lock didnt work but i had a suitably sized stone which used to sit in the lock on the inside and stopped the door from being opened from outside.......Oh and best of all i had about 10 keys on my key ring and everyone started it. God I loved that car.

Scoob was the closest I got to a Chav Chariot. No exterior mods though other then gas discharge driving lights I spose the full decat might be classed as chavvy.

I did have a sub in the Puma but that didn't stay too long

I had a MK1 GTI with 17"'s on it, had to cut most of the rear arches out! Boy did it corner! [i]Unless it was wet, then it was more a case of "Boy did it aqua-plane!"

Probably the VTS I got now, but there were others

6 Capris (2x 3 litre S, 1x 2 litre S and 3 assorted 1600's)
White XR3i with RS bodykit
Astra GLSi
Cortinas with spoilers, janspeeds, webers and wolfrace alloys
Granada Mk2 with proper black windows
Opel Manta GSE with straight thru pipe

Probably only the Supra, MR2 and GT4 escaped the chav look but they're becoming more popular nowadays
