Where's the Defender wave gone?

I've been driving my Series 1 round lately and it's truly an event. Kids, women, grown men wave when I'm driving around. I even had a double thumbs up from a perentie driver. All defender drives wave.
Funnily I used to have a 1978 Lamborghini and I never had a reaction like I've had in "Bundy".

I love your S1. I definitely would be checking it out in a car park even if it was parked next to a 'Super Car'. Maybe I'll see it in real life one day.

spotted 3 in about 5 minutes which i thought was awesome.
2x white 110's both in Eastlakes and both waved back!
1x white 110 in Eastgardens, Waved back!

When I was d riving the 101 back from Bundaberg a convoy of military trucks came the other way....all the perenties drivers waved, some of the Bushmasters looked, surprised I guess, and G wagons just ignored me Go figure, I wpu;d have thought all military would wave at a military vehicle :spudnikwaving:

No it wasn't me. Must have been another fine vehicle.

Two responses from two waves this afternoon. Both white 110's around Richmond nsw

Only took delivery of my Defender in Sydney 2 days ago and had my first opportunity at "the wave" in Australia heading home from the office yesterday. White tray back 110 on James Ruse Dr. Not sure if the driver is not used to being waved at, or the sight of what seems to be a rare-ish dual cab stunned him into non-response. [biggrin]

In Croydon Rd at 1518 today, on my way to pick Lucy up from School, I got a flash and a wave from a White Disco 4. I hope they saw my return.
I was still telling Lucy about it when I got a wave from a new Range Rover. Hope they saw my return as well.
How much joy can you get in one day? [bigrolf]

Hahaha
We own one just to get a wave. I still tell my old man when I get a wave.... or even better.. a full out the window arm wave!
Just so he remembers what he's missing... he had to get a more age appropriate vehicle.....
