Thread: Where's the Defender wave gone?

This is why I wave....if you don't wave it doesn't matter to me:

A case of mistaken identity.

Not a Land Rover and not a Defender....they'll have to make their own waves..best ignored.

What might have been isn't so we have to move on.

Waved at a westbound white new 110 yesterday around 4pm on kurrajong rd just east of the North Richmond bridge. Female driver, no response but in her defense she was looking into the late afternoon sun.

Grenadier? Sure, I’d wave at them. Prolly driven by disgruntled former Deefer owners.
I’ve waved at a few 663s in the past but don’t bother now as I never received any response at all. Might as well wave at KIAs.

That's no good, JT. I have been acknowledged, whilst in my D3, by pretty much every model Land Rover made, with the glaring exception being the Evoque.

Mainly a lift of the hand from their steering wheel, sometimes a single finger and in a few cases, two fingers.

Maybe it’s your natural charm. 🤣
In my MG we used to get a finger raised from the wheel. Fiat 124 Coupés as well.

Something else for the 663 owners to wave at

Two more waves at white new 110’s today with zero response. Did however get a big waves from a white 130 duel cab and a Perentie

Saw a Series 3 wagon in Dubbo yesterday - and waved to them and got a wave back.
