She was clearly lower-middle class, working in a shop, and she did wear track suits.

I am a big enough fan of british movies and television to say that if there is one thing I am more fluent in than british slang, it is doctor who.
Yes, Rose was only called a Chav once, by Cassandra. But because Cassandra was able to feel emotions of Rose's body as well as physicalities, I'm under the impression that she was vocalizing Rose's subconscious as much as making a general statement. So Rose perhaps thinks of herself as a bit of a Chav.
I think Chav is to Rose as Nerd is to Felicia Day. When it comes down to it, Rose probably is a Chav, but as far as Chavs go, she's the coolest and most attractive one you could possibly ask for.
She's pants.
Also, Masamune: I fucking loved Skins, back when it actually was Skins.
