    Well my wife and I have collectively waved at more than 30 new Defenders with a total return wave of ZERO!
    By comparison just today we got 100% response from 3 older Defenders.
    Cheers

    Sadly the cause is lost Simon!

    Even though JLR built my new one, has a green oval and a Defender badge it isn't doesn't register!

    I'm selling my "real Defender" at a greatly inflated expense to the highest waver!

    Think i’ll start waving at Jimny’s, certainly plenty around and either older folk or young girls driving them.

    Pulled up at the lights yesterday in our black puma 90 next to a black puma 110! The driver lowered the passenger window and we exchanged greetings. Lights changed and off we went!

    I've missed a few lately. Didn't see them until it was too late. I've had a few enthusiastic waves from the new version lately though.
    Cheers, Billy.
    Keeping it simple is complicated.

    Obviously it wasn't my BiL or you'd still be waiting, well you would, he'd been off with the first glimmer as the RED changed. No Kid.


    Just remembered, he doesn't drive a LR so there'd be no point.

    Since Ive been daily driving my Series 3 lightweight 6 years now , thats every day , I ve seen ONE series LandRover & obviously exhanged waves . I always get waves from Jeeps & Jimnys , and most cars older than 30 years but nothing from any LandRover that does not have a split screen. Theres a bloke in town that daily drives a Td5 Defender , he dosen't even look, not a hint of recognition let alone a wave . It certainly is a lost cause.
