Man or woman that ruffles the feathers of the petit bourgeoisie, broadly includes actual cunts who fuck everything up and everyone over and also just people who happen to be poor and thus part of a certain culture, despite the pity you might feel for some "rockers" who are picked on, in slightly different circumstances (berlin circa 1939) andy your local nirvana fan from castleknock would most likely be funding right wing death squads to kill inner city people just for being poor

the term 'skanger', though regarded as of Dublinese origin, is accepted as having its origins in Jamaican patois. The very poor were known as 'skangers' ('scavengers'). How the term became part of the dublin dialect is unknown. Nooooice one, roysh?

Small, crappy car driven by a skanger. Often sporting garish paintjobs, oversized wheels, and loud exhaust systems. Ironically, most skanger-bangers are terrible, shitty cars to begin with (often gifted to the skanger by his mother or grandmother), and the modifications can end up being more valueable than the car itself.
Popular vehicles for skanger-banger-isation include Nissan Micras, Vauxhall Novas & Honda Civics.

A young common man buys a new car (well to be honest an old banger) and him and as many friends as possible cram in to take the first drive
