    Wave seems to be alive and well among the military - heading south from Mataranka today, ran into at least half a dozen perenties (sorry if that doesn't count for this thread) all towing no.5s - got a wave from all bar one

    Yeah that counts! It also means that people that don't drive Defenders/110s (maybe) in their off duty/normal lives still think waving to other Defenders/110s is a good idea.
    Bet they don't wave in their own cars to other same make/model owners.

    It's definitely a Land Rover thing!

    And the Defender wave is well and truly alive and well at Gallipoli Brks, Brisbane. I get at least 1-2 waves every day. And they are (as per normal) the nicest guys (no ladies as yet) to chat to. Always very passionate about their vehicles.

    Driving to and from the Sunshine Coast yesterday I must have waved to at least 15 defender/countys. I didn't get any waves but a lot of the drivers looked at us. An exception to the series 1 in the far lane holding tight to the steering wheel and concentrating

    Saw a 90 on the way home, chased him down a few side streets.
    He stuck his hand out the window and waved just as he turned away from me. Good stuuf

    A veritable smorgasbord of Defenders today! A "proper" 130 this morning who, alas, missed my wave as he was fighting the crusty Land Cruiser in front of him. Better luck with the brand-spankers and super-shiny black 90 near North Ryde with regulation waves all 'round. Unfortunately I missed the bronze-y coloured 110 sneaking up the inside as I was ogling the 90 and I waved far too late as it rounded the corner. The same 110 (or an identical one) tooted me 10 minutes later... my feeble, too-late wave was probably missed again! But all was rectified on the home trip with a hearty wave from a white 110 near Drummoyne this afternoon. I saw the regular 110s around the back of Balmain and Lilyfield, but sans drivers. I smiled appropriately.

    You wouldn't read about it, but I am driving the Falcon ute at work at the moment and all I am seeing everywhere here on the Goldy are Fenders. I must admit I have waved at a few, (force of habit) and they probably think I'm a weirdo. We seem to have a lot of 90's running around here at the moment, some wave when I'm in the Tardis and some don't, I get a lot of waves when in the S2a though. Ford at Southport have a nice white 2011 90 for sale. 68k and the want $35k for it, quite tidy. I had my 110 in at Lyntons the other day for the oil pump recall and spotted this little beauty in the yard, love the colour. $46k they were asking.
