And what did I spy? I bloke on the side of the road, in a car with the bonnet up, he looked like your stereotypical 'chav lad' - Upturned cap, Burberry scarf (I kid you not - on a warm day, a scarf) and Nike branded 'threads'. The situation was really quite funny, their he was, in the drivers seat, with his head slumped against the window - doing absolutely nothing to restart the car and making no attempt to move it to a more 'secure' off road position.
As he was a Chav and looked like a total pillock I started laughing and pointed him out to the other two peeps in the car, they also started laughing and he noticed. "What the F are you looking at?" he roared at us, which we found even funnier. "What the 'F'in' H are you laughing at?". Resisting the temptation to say 'a complete pillock' we turned away and 'sniggered' silently.
The lights changed a minute later and we were through, the breeze hitting us again. We all burst out laughing and looked back at the Chav - in his broken down banger-Volvo - who was still wearing his 'constipated chimp' expression of confused anger.
Yep. That was one fun trip. Highlight of my life in fact. I'm not really sure why I told you all that - it's just another amusing story of 'Chav's behaving badly'...man, that would make a great show!

Fine then, would you like to be pointed and laughed at?
I hear it's great fun.

Yeah, whatever you say mister. I'm not acting high and mighty, I'm telling you that the only pillocks in the situation you described are you and your 'peeps'.

He was right next to a massive shopping centre (on the main road outside) - that included a garage and always has many visitors.

'This car rolls up'. He could have got out of the car, onto the pavement next to it and then asked for help from the many people wandering by the car - his inability to do this was half the reason we were laughing.
Beat That

yeah because leaving someone stranded at the side of the road just because he dresses a certian way that earnsloads of respect doesnt it.

hahahaha you loser
I agree with Merm and FFF, you've started a thread titled 'And that's why Chavs have a bad reputation..' and yet all you have posted is that you and your friends couldn't be bothered to help someone out, and insted just laughed.
Where is the part about the Chavs earning their reputation?

That was before hand

There was no 'pointing'. That's no reason to bawl across the street. Who cares if some unknown people are laughing at me, behind their hands, in a car on the other side of the road. I wouldn't.

That last sentence is acting high and mighty.
Smooth argument there

maybe he doesnt want to run out into a busy junction or is shy.

he and his friends are Chavs

So, basically, your argument is that if someone thinks that it wasn't very nice to laugh at someone because they were having car trouble, they're 'high and mighty'. And besides, if I don't have respect after 3 years, there isn't much point in trying to get it now, is there?
