hey, I'm a Qld resident. But yes well I am guilty of not waving. They day Lucky was registered myself and zulu delta were have a great time coasting along discussing (loudly) the finer points on the S1 and didn't see an oncoming Defender waving furiously at us.
I only became aware of this when Mrs Ho Har pointed this out. But the Defender driver...well who knows what he thought.

I wouldnt think so. LR dont make a product i want anymore and the pumas simply are not what land rovers used to be. Notice i said 'drive whatever you want' well i wanted a vehicle that has comfortable ergonomics, dual cab ute and leaf springs over live axles with a simple non electric turbo diesel engine. And thats exactly what i got :p:p:p:p:p and i absolutely love it.

I love my Ford - ever since Blackers threw a spanner on it, it has become bewitched.....Darned thing is running like a dream! :D

Is this a rant, a bitch or a moan. Yes I am well aware of what a corrigation is and believe it or not the phenomena does occur outside the Pilbara. What did I do? Which time? I can tell you when we went fishing, we fished, drank a lot, did a bit of the old inout inout with the missus, you know the usual stuff. Tell me does Nhulunbuy qualify as Outback Oz? I can tell you there is nowhere a Valiant cannot get you if you have enough fuel.
