Then swapped waves with the Red one in the Coles Car Park at Richmond and then swapped a wave with one heading into Richmond by the polo fields as I was heading home.

I think the one you saw heading out of Richmond was me. white 2 door hard top.

The grey 130 was in the car park at the shops. Should parked next to it and waited

but I was in a hurry

Had a "bromance" with a lovely green 90 with white top along Alexandra Parade, Princes Street Melbourne this afternoon. Got a few waves in as we passed one another going the same way lol

Waved to a couple of Defenders the other day, but nobody seemed interested...

Would have been " 'armless" to try it under the conditions

Passed "the" blue Defender on the Lyell Highway again yesterday and no response to my hearty wave . It's Un-Australian! Trouble is , you see it coming towards you and get the elbow ready and then by the time you've committed yourself you realise it's Mr No Wave. Drat.
Cheers,

Driving home from Sydney yesterday I saw three other Defenders including a 300TDI 110 sort of a dark olive green with a full length rack, which i followed for some 8-10kms on the M4 (F4?) and James Rouse Drive (including being right next to at the lights) but not even a look of recognition.

No returned waves from the other two. A white puma 110 with roof rack and a Perentie which had to give way to us at roundabout, they just looked at us as though we were from another planet as we waved at them..

That's a hard day in the Big Smoke. You get that sometimes. Probably all renting the for the Hol's.

You could well be right. But not to be discouraged, I'll keep waving as I have done for a few decades now.

Cook and I both waved at a dark 110 today full of gear and kids, junction of Ocean Reef Rd and Wanneroo Rd. No response possibly because we were in the D4.

I just knew it was no good waving to lesser mortals........
