Thread: Where's the Defender wave gone?

Got a wave from a Heritage 90 on the way home yesterday as well, so my strike rate on the M2 is improving.

Plus I had a nice long chat to a couple of (non-aulro) Defender owners at the local shops on the weekend. Suggested to them the benefits of joining the forum.

Cheers,
Jon

Got a return wave from a green 110 with a white roof, on Churchill Park Drive heading away from Endeavour Hills at approximately 11:00am. I'm glad he waved otherwise I'd be disappointed due to me waving to him from 50 meters away.

Hi Nathan , Mate that was me , you sure did give a right Royal wave , plus wearing your Hi Viz . That's the first wave I had in quite a while. Not because we don't wave , it's just I don't seem to pass many Defenders . Take care Jim .

I guess it was hard to miss me, I have had people miss me still even with the hi-vis jacket on.

I liked your truck, a bit newer than mine.

It's a 2015 in Keswick Green , done just over 21Ks I'm loveing it . I've put a few extras on just makes it more personalized .

I think everyone needs to put their special touches on their trucks to personalize them. I plan to put the old tub on mine and turn the alloy tray into a jack off system for work, then take it off for camping and 4wding. I'm thinking of painting it back to the original Camino/Bahama? Gold. I'm not sure which one it is yet. I think that should give it its own uniqueness (not that it really needs it with all the mods a previous owner did).

There should be a tsunami of defender waves...what's wrong people! We even wave when we pass one in the overtaking lane!

On our way north on the Stuart highway from Coober Pedy to Alice we passed a convoy of official Army versions who waved hysterically as we passed them going south.

Ok, so I'm new to this Defender part of the forum (formerly Discos), but now the proud owner of a Defender. Only a week in and I'm spotting them everywhere...sat behind a nice green 90 on the Tulla Fwy this morning, should I have waived? Again another Grey 110 yesterday on the Monash, too much rain to see the occupant. I must start waiving to see what responses I get. I ride a motorcycle (adventure bike) and you always get waives from other riders...except on Harley's or cruisers, heck even the spotsbike wave back. Did I say I'm loving my new Landy.
