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.
    What colour is yours Kogvos? We've probably exchanged waves a few times.
    Cheers Billy

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.
    Looks like Aintree with an Indus roof, & dual finish alloys,...very nice.

    I'm a yuppy Keswick-with-white-roof 90 with a city-inappropriate bull bar and offensive winch hanging off the front.

    I've also got black roof racks to make it completely impractical in car parks.

    Maybe we need a secret wave for the future.

    OK. I'm a 110 Corris Grey Santorini Black roof Safari Snorkel ARB Bar. No roof furniture for parking reasons. Any wave will do me but oped to suggestions.

    We'll also need a secret handshake and a silly walk.

    I've had a silly walk for ages, but not because of LRs.


    I'm a super-shiny white 2009 110 wagon with a black bulbar and winch, sidesteps, wheelcarrier and black roof racks. I look very standard, but I do have a few hidden tricks.

    Handshake has To be simple as I have a bung wrist and we have to apply at the Ministry of Silly Walks.

    I still wave at Defenders but any Defer drivers who may usually wave are mostly gobsmacked at a D4 driver waving.

    The situation is not so bad in the Series III FFR and Perentie FFR many more waves when driving those, but only on the highway, not usually in the big smoke.

    And if you're asking, yes I do have a silly walk after getting out of the SIII and Perentie (but not so bad after the D4)!

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    I had a D4 instigate a wave about 4-5 months ago and I was in so much shock I nearly didn't wave back.

    I dunno how you can have a silly walk after the series III. Unless you don't have the original seats.....
    I had buckets in my series III, for the mrs, but I preferred the bench seats in the Series IIA once I did it. My not have been as comfy, but I could always get out and walk without staggering for 2 minutes afterwards.

    Phill.
