    I just drove 5000km in the 130 I picked up in Newcastle. From there to Adelaide and then up to Darwin I was keen to do the defender wave but I did not pass one other defender!!! Surely that's a record? Saw quite a few discos etc and got waves from them...

    I am depressed................. sold the Deefer and now have a RRS - still wave at Defenders, no wave back............. now also wave at fellow RR and also even, sigh, discos and...... you guessed it, no waves at all. I have always tended to wave at all things Landrover and in the Defender usually got the wave back. I guess thats why its the 'Defender' wave

    The wave is still strong since I've had my Td5 here in Sydney.

    Almost every Defender I've seen has waved back

    There a few Defenders in and around Mudgee/Gulgong, but they don't seem to have heard of the Defender wave; I'll keep trying though.

    I wave / nod to other Defenders even when I'm on the motorbike ! I'm sure that causes some confusion !

    While on Chrissy holidays in the 101, I drove it about 1000KM - waved at every Land Rover that went by. Got 2 waves returned - both from Defenders.
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.

    When I drove buses, bus drivers who did not wave to other bus drivers were automatically given the nickname of "concrete arms"!

    I'm driving home to Brissy ATM and currently at Coffs Harbour. I'll stand by my OP comment that Puma drivers are the worst. I passed 5 Defenders yesterday in NSW and 2 of the Pumas just looked at me as if I was insane (which is probably true!) Bah Humbug!!
    Dealers are to blame. I'm blaming them. Should be part of the delivery handover

    Bit late, but happy new year to all.
