How enthusiastically do you wave?

[RisingSun]

I just did a trip from Cairns to Brisbane and got a few waves from fellow Land Rover drivers from all makes and wondered about others waving habits.
I played the if you wave then I wave game, much to the amusement of my wife.

To put it to the test I am planning on waving to every Land Rover on my way back up to see if I get a better strike rate.

Another funny waving game i like to play with passengers is, wave to a specific make. So you might say holden, and you have to wave to every holden you see, very enthusiastically of course. Maybe i'm just easily amused, but it usually gets a laugh.

Driving around Eyre peninsula in south australia is the only place I've seen where nearly everyone waves to everyone, wonder how this originated?

[Homestar]

I wave all the time to fellow Land Rover owners, even when I'm in the Commodore. No one waves back much though...:D

[digger]

I wave to all, but esp defenders and series :)

even do it when Im at work.... some people look a little alarmed to be getting a wave from my type of work car :) :twisted:

[RisingSun]

My wife finds it hilarious that I have joined the "old mans club" and she sees a Landy coming and asks if I am going to wave to my new friend.

That's fine, 1,800 km's of enthusiastic waving will be payback on the trip home. :p

As a side note I pulled in behind a disco II at the lights in Mackay, kept sight of him till Rocky, but amazingly 13 hours later watched him take the turn to the airport in Brisbane.

[minibloodhound]

When I wen o the cape last year I waved to every single D4 I saw, and not a single one replied. I miss the days of my 66 mini where everyone waved to each other!

[Cobber]

Of the Land Rover owners I've encountered (outside of my local area) I find Defender owners wave the most, Range Rover owners wave the least, and Disco owners are somewhere in the middle :)

[33chinacars]

On a recent trip to Adelaide & return ~1400 kms I waved to every Land Rover & Range Rover. They all snobbed me, not one returned wave :(

Gary

[TheTree]

Growing u in the country, we waved to anyone on a dirt road, it was just something everyone did.

I wave occasionally, but other Rangie owners seem reluctant, or is that snobbish? :wasntme:

Lots of Land Rovers drive around or through Goulburn, two lots never wave, late model Range Rover owners and Defender drivers.

I work on the basis that drivers of new Range Rovers don't even know they are driving a Land Rover and Defender owners know they drive inferior vehicles to Disco's so they feel unworthy.

I'll head back to the D3/4 section now. ...;)

[The Cone of Silence]

I started off waving to all Land Rovers - Series, Deefers, Discos, Rangies but alas I found that I only ever got responses from Series and Defenders so that's who I wave to now. Enthusiastically too - if the window's open, the arm goes out and occasionally into a big thumbs up. If the window's closed, the wave is a big full-palm wave through the windscreen and a grin like the a slightly insane Cheshire Cat.

What I HATE is when don't see someone until it's too late. I see them, they're waving at me but I don't have time to wave back as they're already past me. They must hate me an think "non-waving bugger!". Awful.

[dpf]

I have recently gone from a Defender to a Freelander 2. One of the biggest things I miss (apart from the joy I got every time I got behind the wheel of the Defender) is the Defender Wave.

Sadly Freelander's dont quite attract the same type of people and I'm stuck wishing I could wave as a Defender drives by. My girlfriend of course thinks the wave was ridiculous but I loved the sense of community that Defender owners have.

[ATH]

I only wave at other Deafeners as they know what we go through.:) But I have noticed that the wrong type seem to be driving them these days and lots don't wave back.:mad:

[sam_d]

I only wave to Defenders - even when I had a Disco. Disco drivers never seemed to want to wave back ever.

I hardly ever got a wave back from anyone when I had the Disco but now I've got a Defender the I get a wave back every time. I think Defender drivers just weren't expecting a wave from a Disco.

[iClick]

Disco drivers never seemed to want to wave back ever.


This is my experience too - I now only wave at Disco's if there's been good eye contact prior, but even then it's rare to get a wave back :( I get the impression that they think I'm mad :p

I'll always give a good wave to a Series or Defender and 99% of the time it's enthusiastically returned :D

[JackH]

I did a trip from Sydney up through QLD, back down through NSW to VIC, over to SA covering about 6500kms. Saw over 30 Disco's, Rangies and Defenders and waved to them all...only 3 waved back :(

I still wave to every make of Land Rover when i see one.

I'm gonna make more effort to wave to defender owners and stick up for my fellow disco driving brethren!

I have never recieved a wave from any LR owner of any description, however I have never given one as I've been too worried about coming across as a wierdo!

It's time to break the ice... if you see me wave, i'm not crazy I've just been influenced by this forum! :)

It is an L322 thing. I waved at every LR or RR driver on the way back from Melbourne in the new Vogue and didn't get anything in return. In my old classic I usually get a pretty good response.

[thedrover]

'How enthusiastically does a LR owner wave'?


How broken down are you at the time?

[juddo]

I wave to every LR when I am driving the D3. On average I reckon I get about 2 out of every 10 wave back. Very rare that someone else initiates, but occasionally it happens.

I think the problem is Land Rover's market success. Most people driving Land Rovers now days have no idea that they are driving more than just another car.

I bought my D3 because it was a Land Rover; the fact that it was the best 4x4 on earth was secondary. It seems most people now days buy a Land Rover because it stacked up the best against all the other potential purchases. Their next car is just as likely to be the new Toyota or Mazda or whatever. And they have no idea why people they do not know are suddenly waving to them when driving past. It never used to happen in their old commodore. :confused:

I Know but I still waved anyway.

[Bardizzo]

If it has a green oval I'm waving even though its more miss than hit these days.

[elshano]

I've never been waved at :( I thumbs up every Defender I see and every Disco I or II.
I figure I've got buckley's of gettng a wave from anyone else.

I used to drive old school Mazda rotaries and would get a phenomenal amount of waves :D

[Disco Muppet]

I wave to everyone.
Get more waves from discos than defenders.
Oh and to the bloke in the 130 in the blue mountains, nice rig :cool:

[Rohan]

I've been waving from my RRS ever since I got it. Alas only one wave back (p38 rangie I think) in nearly a year!
I will continue waving although in Melbourne it's a bit unrewarding.....
The best bit is watching S.W.M.B.O. squirming in the passenger seat :)

[TheTree]

Having been a partly committed waver, this thread has convinced me not to give up and continue to wave on !

I like the "If it has a green oval I wave" that's my new philosophy :D

I must agree though that many of the newer owners don't realise they have bought into a legend :angel:

Or maybe they are just wa:censored:kers.

I think it's a country thing, I find that in WA only locals or regular country drivers lift a finger or two. Sort of a friendly to from the other poor bugger hundreds of kms from anywhere! If I remember correctly my dad once explained that it was to do with so few vehicles you meet on the road.


Lane

[schuy1]

I wave at anything with a green oval! Well not wave as such , just the finger up or sometimes the palm thing. The Mrs and kids think Im mad :D I find the newer they r the less returns, Regardless if they are Defenders , Discos or Rangies. about mid 2000;s is the cutoff! Of course the further you are from civilization the more waves.

Driving regularly between Perth & Kalgoorlie, I find that almost nobody waves between Perth & about Southern Cross - then you'll get quite a few people wave between Southern Cross & Coolgardie. Between Coolgardie & Kalgoorlie, nobody waves unless they know your car.

Head off across the Nullarbor and quite a lot wave. Leads me to the opinion that those who wave between Southern Cross & Coolgardie have either just come across the paddock or about to head over that way.

As far as Landrovers go - I get the occasional wave from D3's / D4's, noticeably from those which have obviously been set up for touring - virtually never from the plain "soccer mum" types running round Perth. From D1's / D2's in Perth - I'd say only from those who might recognize my vehicle as being someone from this forum (and if you saw it, there's a chance that you might know whose it is ;)). In Kalgoorlie, I get quite a few waves from various model Disco's - some of them know me, some don't.

Range Rovers - never had a wave from one. Defenders - never had a wave from one unless it's someone I know.

Who do I wave to - any model Disco that look a little different to "soccer mums", especially if they look as though they might get "dirty" or otherwise travel outside the metro area a bit, Range Rovers if they wave first (hasn't happened yet :p) and Defenders - only if it's someone I recognize.

I've had a couple of good enthusiastic waves from D4's lately either travelling to or around Kalgoorlie - one of them could have been almost a mirror image of my own. I've noticed on a couple of trips recently though that I've got more waves from Jeep drivers than Landrovers. :o

Definitely see (and give) a lot more waves in the country than in Perth though. ANY LR wave in Perth is a rare event - except for someone in a nice looking green D2 who recently pulled behind me at a set of lights in the centre of the city, bipped the horn, waved, and took a photo of the rear end of mine and posted it on here within about half an hour of spotting me ... :D

[Flipper]

Everyone waves to you on the sunshine coast.
They pull out in front of you, where you are forced to lock up all 4 wheels and they give the big wave and yell out "THANKS MATE FOR LETTING ME IN"

As a recent Defender owner I have been rigorous in my attempts to acknowledge and wave at other Deefa owners. Sometimes vigorous, sometimes pull alongside if travelling in same direction on multillane roads and cruise together, swap poistion. Hand or similar through windscreen or simple ninety degree arm wave of window. In my district there are about 10 deefas that regularly pass each other. 99% of the time you get a wave back or they've also already started waving(hand, arm out the door etc). I've never had a Disco or Freelander, Rangie driver wave towards me so I presumed they didn't know about the ettiquette. (This is the case we're I'd rather not waste a wave if they don't know what thy're driving...) Having said that I'd say that 99% of Disco, Freelander or Rangie owners on my district drive them because of 'status' rather than a love of the marque's name or history. :)

Your on the money, when driving my defender I almost always got a wave from series and defenders but only the rangies and discos that were off-roaders would wave back (not that I would try if they worn't).

[SBD4]

I wave to everyone.
Get more waves from discos than defenders.
Oh and to the bloke in the 130 in the blue mountains, nice rig :cool:

Yeah Muppet, I've seen him on three occasions. First time was about four months ago tearing up the mountain, then again about two weeks ago at Leura Woollies car park which was funny - I was wheeling the trolley back to the disco when I spotted him reversing out of his spot. I start giving him an enthusiastic thumbs up when I realised I wasn't standing next to my disco but behind a Volvo V70. I got the "I'm not waving back to you" look - then I realised my error. I took two steps sideways and gave him another which was acknowledged.

Third time was Monday just gone, We pulled up along side each other, I waved 1st, he waved back. I followed him up the mountain but lost him at Lawson after getting stuck behind traffic.

He definitely likes to get to places in a hurry and I hope he didn't get caught by the camera that was parked at Wentworth Falls that night.

Bloody nice rig indeed!

PS: I try to wave to everybody.

[Jondavball]

Defenders only and with a degree of enthusiasm. If travelling with the wife and kids they get five waves. Being in ACT I get waved fairly regularly but only from other Defenders and never from anything else. I travel regularly to Thredbo and always get waved heading that way as well, including from someone driving a Series 1 in Cooma who I have seen a couple of times.

[TeamFA]

Have tried to wave to non-Defender LRs, but never had a response. I've found Disco drivers usually aren't even looking at the Defender, let alone gesticulating.

Defender drivers get the biggest wave I can give. I've usually got the window down, so it's an out-the-window wave...

[Disco Muppet]

I've gotten more from D2s than anyone else.
A couple of D3/D4s, one RRC, and I get mixed responses from Defender drivers.
None from the modern rangies or freelanders.
Most enthusiastic response I got was from a D1, arm out the window wave and peace sign :p

[schuy1]

DiscoMuppet ! NOT THAT sort of finger! :o The old lifted forefinger from the hand on the wheel in the 1 oclock position! I dunno about these Muppets in Discos :? Have to have it all in big letters :D To much hejumacation I suspect! :D :D

mmm quick round trip to the other town over the hill. 2 Rangies - 0 wave or even eyeball. 1 wave reciprocating with another puma. 1 D2 - 0 wave or eyeball contact from other driver. 1 wave from a Ford ute driver. (His other car must be deefa or maybe he was waving because of the Ford transit-like Puma...)

[lane]

I must have magic, I just got a wave from a nice lady in a brand new EVOQUE!!! Still in disbelief...:D

[reubsrover]

When driving the Series all models (even those which aren't new enough to have a green oval :p) get a wave with enthusiasm increasing for Defenders the older they get and reaching fever pitch on the odd occasion I'm lucky enough to see another Series on the road.

When driving anything else Defenders and of course Series still get waved at. Normally get a good response from Defender drivers but it's hit and miss with the rest.

If I really want waves it's a matter of taking the roof off and driving around Melbourne. Got a few extremely enthusiastic waves from different makes, started a number of conversations at traffic lights but the best was on the way down to Melbourne driving with no roof in the rain, a chap stuck his head out of an overtaking Magna with a big grin giving me the thumbs up and a friendly toot from the driver :)

Your lucky I rarely get a wave from fellow deafener drivers here but most seem to be hipsters with little or no idea

[MBZ460]

I wave and usually get waved back from the green oval - and I have a star badge!
Series and Defenders, not sure if they always know what they are waving back to (1988 G-wagen)
But I also share a wave with old G60 Patrols, FJ40's, Scats, Sierras, etc...
Just and old and special fourby thing for me - we are all enthusiasts.

[Andrew D]

When I do a road trip, Brisbane to Roma, Condamine to Sydney, Brisbane to Rockhampton, I wave at every Land Rover I see. (pointer finger or two off the steering wheel style). Generally everyone waves in the regional areas.

Most recently I travelled from Rockhampton to Airlie Beach and when passing (overtaking) a red Defender I gave them the wave, the horn and a cheesy grin. Not even sure if they knew what day of the week it was but I had a good laugh.

Yes my wife thinks it's strange which makes it even more amusing.

Getting a return wave can be pretty rare on the coastal trips and they come from all sorts. (D1, Defenders, RRS)

I generally don't wave in the cities unless someone waves first.

What is looking disappointing are the number of drivers who only wave at their own make :(. Don't believe this is in the spirit of owning a Land Rover. One in, all in.

I was in my series III the other day and I waved at a defender. He just looked at me and didn't wave. I was feeling sad after that because I was waiting to pass a defender so I could give and receive my first wave :(. I went out driving in our defender yesterday and I got I HUGE wave. That made me happy. :)

[mattadelaide1975]

I will wave to any Land Rover, with hit and miss results.

the best wave I got was from a fellow D2 owner, it was ANZAC Day morning this year, myself, the wife and rugrat were travelling on our way out of Adelaide pulling the camper trailer, and they were coming the other way, also pulling a camper trailer. The biggest waves from us to them, and from them to us..... my faith in Land Rover kind was restored :)

Cheers

[Redback]

I used too wave, but just couldn't be bothered anymore, I actually get more waves from non Land Rover drivers than I do from Land Rovers, so I just wave at any 4WD if they wave.

Baz.

[DiscoMick]

I only ever get waves back from Deefers and older Discos. Those towing campers or set up for touring wave the most, the 'soccer mums' the least. Never had a wave back from a Rangie.:(

[SLOWBOAT]

I wave to most LR's but unless it is seen through the windscreen it is not seen through all the tinted windows.
I must say though not any have waved back.
Probably give up in another 6 months of trying.

[thedrover]

http://smh.drive.com.au/drivers-make-a-point-in-solidarity-20130507-2j5ro.html

Article in the SMH on waving. It's taken from the 'distance from the city' end of the discussion, not just LR - LR waving.

[Flipper]

We should all wave to each other no matter what the vehicle!
That is how it was in Australia for a long time, and so it should be today.
If we want to keep our nation at least partly sane, lets at least show some respect to all drivers and give a wave.
The old rule in my day was if a driver did not wave back they had problem.

It is like a hand shake.. If you shake a hand of a bloke that has a weak handshake you know he is trouble.
Body language is very powerful, and we as a nation have been swamped with invasions from other countries to the point where we now have debates on waving to each other on the road.

Our culture and our way of life is screwed if we go down this road of debating these natural and humane actions.

[reubsrover]

Agree with your point Flipper but it can get a little tricky on a multilane highway.

While I wave to anyone on a quiet country road, the busier the road the less I wave and the more I concentrate on keeping the Series from getting too close and personal to other oncoming vehicles.

I still never miss waving to a Defender or Series though (if my demister and wipers are working and I can see :o) even if it's across through the trees to the other side of the highway :D

[RisingSun]

OK I am heading back towards Cairns from Brisbane tomorrow, breaking the trip over 4 days so all daylight driving.

Let the waving fest begin, apparently my wife can't wait.

Everyone better wave just in case it is me :D

[thedrover]

I find you can judge how far away from civilisation by how many fingers you get.

100km out of town on highway = a finger.

Turn off onto a sideroad= 2 fingers.

Another 80km= a hand over the steering wheel.

Middle of BF Idaho = arm.

Waves suddenly stop altogether, and can barely get a finger in return= next town 30km.

[33chinacars]

My faith has finally been restored.

Got a wave from a white P38 in Hamilton on Saturday night

And a RRClassic in Portland today :clap2::clap2:

[lokka]

I sometimes like to wave with the bird finger that nearly allways gets a finger back :p

[Bushie]

Always wave at other defenders, even if I'm driving the work hilux, and that usually brings some quizzical looks.

Whether I wave at others is a bit dependent on where I am. Around the suburbs usually don't bother (defenders excluded) as 95% of the time there is no response. Out of the city gets better, out in the bush everyone gets a quick wave.

I've seen you a few times;)

I do it almost automatically now, index finger flicks up as soon as I register it's an LR.
I got a wave from this fellow, immaculate RRC. Only Rangie I've ever gotten a wave from.

[RisingSun]

Brisbane to Rockhampton, 8 waves thrown out to Discos, Defenders and 1 Rangie....... No returns :(

50 km's out of Rocky I was feeling desperate and considered waving to some Landcruisers, but common sense took over, and I chose just to deal with the rejection, perhaps tomorrow will send a wave my way.

If nothing else I am a source of humor, and receiver of ridicule for the family.


It has also been declared to all that there will be a celebration of the most embarrassing magnitude when I receive my first wave.........they have been warned :D.

Keep throwing them waves out people, particularly if you are in the Rocky to Bowen stretch, I don't know if I can take another day of rejection.

[C00P]

Heaps of return waves in both Tassie and SA, enthusiastically from Series and Defenders, more restrained from others. Frequency of waves fell off as we got closer to major capitals (Hobart, Melbourne, Adelaide) but almost 100% when north of Port Augusta....

Coop

[tangus89]

I wave to all landys from my classic, lots of late waves from defenders, discos are harder to get a wave out of, other classics give the best return rate.
lots of returned waves in the defender, but the most in the series (lots from other makes that i can only assume have a landy in the shed).

[RisingSun]

The overall tally as at today, 13 waves delivered, 1 returned. The whole car was well aware that a wave had been received.

And in the defence of one driver he was intently digging pixie dust from his nose, so I have marked him as unable to respond as he was previously engaged. :twisted:

1 day to go, come on Landy Lovers :D

[TheTree]

Well i have been trying this out here on the Central Coast and after about a week or so of waving at every Green Oval i see, yesterday I finally got a wave back, from a Deefer of course :cool:

Still I won't give up !

[juddo]

I have always waved to every LR. Recently I am wondering why I bother though.

Just got back from a 2 week trip to Broken Hill - Cameron Corner - Bourke loop. When touring outback you wave to all other travelers and 95% wave back. I gave a specially big wave to other Land Rovers, but hardly got a wave. I think from memory, 1 defender, 1 series, 2 discovery (1 or 2). Did not get a single wave back from the Discovery 3/4 drivers or any of the few Range Rover / RR Sport drivers. Do not remember seeing any RR Vogue, or FL or Evoque.

In total it would have been 1 in 10 who waved back. Oh, I did get one guy in a Discovery 2 who I thought was going to wave but was just picking his nose...

I am seriously wondering why I bother. Are Land Rover owners really getting that rude? Is the type of person who buys a Land Rover changing?

[weeds]

I don't bother waving anymore........if another driver Landy or other raises there finger and hand I will do the same.

[Kevin B]

I did a trip from Sydney up through QLD, back down through NSW to VIC, over to SA covering about 6500kms. Saw over 30 Disco's, Rangies and Defenders and waved to them all...only 3 waved back :(

I still wave to every make of Land Rover when i see one.

That could be you I wave to occationally on Andrews Rd...:D

[Chops]

I had quite a few waves here in Melb over the weekend :D

Had a guy in a black RR staring me down as he went around the corner in front of me,, I waved,, I think it took him by surprise :D

[DiscoMick]

Apologies to the guy who waved at me on a corner out near Tenterfield somewhere the other day. You came round the corner so fast and were so quick with the wave that you were gone before I had time to react.
