Thread: Where's the Good OL Wave

I think TD5 drivers give the best wave.
On the weekend I was on my property near the fence in Henry
when another TD5 beeps his horn and gives me a big wave as he drives by.
I have done the beeping thing as well, if I am driving and see a Deefer in the servo filling up I always give a beep and a wave , and usually get a return wave.
Well done Defender drivers.
Isn't it good to belong to the "I know what you are going through but would not change it for anything in the world club"

So just took delivery of our MY2012 110 last week. I think my wife was slightly sceptical about the wave thing at first, but now she's really into it and seems to be driving the new Land Rover more than I am

Certainly the wave seems to be more popular with drivers of older or more traditional style vehicles, and those with a genuine enthusiasm for the brand. I reckon the wave is alive and well in the Top End

Passed a SIII LWB on the way back from uni today.
Either didn't see my arm out the window waving or the bugger snobbed me

I had a wave from a young man in a TD5 this morning in Dandenong

The wave seems to be good and healthy over here in the West...

You do get the odd confused look of some chaps driving a brand new Puma, but I honestly think its an education thing rather than a snub. Land Rover culture seems to struggle a bit in general in Oz, especially off new converts.

SWMBO drives our Puma 90 most of the time and she actually keeps score of non-wavers in case we know them off the forum! Name and shame time on the WA-AULROIANS' "spotted" section!

I know where the OP is coming from,
I always get a return wave when I'm in in Vic,
I'm slumming it in Vauclause this week, I'm really suprised how many Defenders there are around here, but NOT ONE return wave, and that White 90 Td5 - you are really letting the side down. Probably a case of snobbery in these parts I think. Cant wait to get back to reality.

the only place I have not noticed a wave was on a recent trip to the Simpson. All the Defenders we came across (including Pumas) stopped for a chat instead.

I wave a defenders + series whoever I spot early enough. I have stopped waving at disco's- reckon I've had 40-50 unreturned waves.

I have a 110 owner living close by and kids at same school and feel our 2-a day wave is bordering on ? Not sure what but makes me laugh I suppose. Any protocol on this proximity issues?! :$
