I think chav is now used as a word to describe attitude now rather than the person.
Do you tuck your tracksuit bottoms into your socks or wear your baseball cap at a ridiculous angle on the back of your head? If you do that is an image of a chav.
i have a classic subaru and wear hoodies but have a fair command of english (which they seem to lack) this like you doesn't make me a chav.
Look at ChavScum

Chav is now used in the same frame as w@nker its gone from image to a general term for someone not liking something about another person.

yep, lets start using the word pikey again, I'm sick of chav too

my wife is known as the chav police in work as she is an authority of all that is chav, though I assure you she is not herself, thogh she does like 'Jordan' (WTF)

in Australia they call chav types bogans 'ah yeah mate, he's a bladdy bogan'
I like bogan, much better

My take on it, if your interested is:

It has gotten out of hand and the word is flung about here, there and everywhere, i generally refer to Chavs as 14 - 17 year old who tuck their tracksuit bottoms into their white socks, have white trainers, lots of burberry, cap perched on the back of the head, tend to swear alot and cause trouble, often associated with ASBO's. and thier transportation of choice is a scooter.

Fact: Scooby owners do NOT get a lot of respect.

Fact: You might waste any old expensive barge, and you still will not get any respect.

Fact: Your social habits/looks (chav) might compound that situation even more, therefore, just hang on and deal with it!

CHAV is more about the perception of someone's mental capacity combined with a lazy can't do attitude.


Not everyone has a Degree with the education armoury to extol the virtues of wisdom.


If you're a grafter, you're not a chav


Don't consider it anything to do with dress sense.


So CHAV = brainless bull ****ter

In this life, if you work hard, you will eventually suceed. Don't be bitter, get educated or face the wrath of the CHAV syndrome.

You never know, the Audi TT forum might be full of chicken heads.

Seriously though, get over it, Audi TT = hairdressers car, Impreza = chav car.

Who cares?

Pretty sure you used to drive an early Jap import?

If you think only classic owners are branded 'Chavs', then think again

If ever somebody defined a chav this is it.

His from Brum - pretty much everybody who lives there is a chav, the people with money, taste and class moved away years ago.

Lacoste track suits - maybe for lounging around at home but never ever go outside in it, unless of course you're a chav!

Moshino caps, lets face it the only reason you wear it is because of the label, caps are uncool, end of. The fact that you have to wear a designer one (presumably fake) is crass and therefore chavvy.

You don't know how to use punctuation, sentences start with a capital letter for starters. Therefore you don't have a very good command of the English language = chav!

Finally you have to resort to swearing at the end of your post. Chavs swear alot as they have a very limited vocabulary.
