    Most of the time people wave back when you wave at them as said he must have borrowed it

    I was driving though Wellington point the other day when I saw a red 110 and I did the normal wave when the bloke leaned right out of the window and put Both thumbs up

    The most enthusiastic wave I me have seen

    I don't wave at Dicovery's. There's so many of them. I'd get RSI.
    C'mon Mick, I'd wave to you!!

    I have to say D1 and D2 drivers are starting to wave to my old RRc.

    Maybe it's because they've been superseded by two models just like my Range Rover?

    Or maybe it's because they are now in the hands of the enthusiasts and not just school run mums?

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

    kaa45 Yeah, must have borrowed it. No REAL landie owner would be so rude! .....Maybe so as like I said was side by side at the front the queue at the lights and he was embarrassed to see another 130 there freaky stuff lol

    I believe the case is more that people who own these vehicles are probably not even aware that Defenders are made by the same company. This certainly was the case when the first Discoverys made an appearance, but as Diana has pointed out, many of the older Discos etc are now with enthusiasts.
