Scottish term for young people who seem to have a fondness for bright, cheesy clothing (Kappa tracksuits and the like), as well as cheap alcohol (alcopops, Buckfast (aka 'Buckie') etc.).

When they're old enough to drive and have worked enough hours at the local greased food outlet to afford a vehicle, the car of choice for neds is the Vauxhall Nova. They'll happily drive about with the worst possible 'music' at the highest level (well, not as loud as the exhaust) and cruise along up and down the beach (at least where I live) until bedtime.

Avoid.
