Stickers can be found in our emporiumOriginally posted by JamesH
What AULRO stickers are these? I don't like to oversticker my Defender but I have a Keysbrook Burger sticker and a Remote Equipment Repairs sticker (made my beloved seat covers) on the driverside rear window. I'd happily put an AULRO sticker up.
I will wave a Defender. In Perth my experience has been generally pretty positive; a nod or a small wave will elicit a response. One or two shiny new X-treme drivers have not returned a wave or even given any indication that they even notice other Defenders but they may not have seen me - they seem to drive pretty fast. I will say that I have been pleasantly surprised to see younger people driving Defenders and I'm not talking just groovey X-tremes. Seen a couple white 110s with P plates - gives you hope.
I won't wave every series vehicle but sometimes they look so good I have to. I don't wave Discos or Rangies in the city though I would in the country. There are too many of them here in town and I guess they'd be models with the highest non enthusiast ownership.
When I drove up north earlier this year, we almost made it to Broome having counted only 2 other Defenders. But this changed when we arrived in Broome, that place has to be the Defender capital of Australia. I think they must like alluminium trucks for the beach fishing. Counted 30 in two days - most had indications of being local not tourists.
There are two types of people in this world, good and bad. The good sleep better, but the bad seem to enjoy the waking hours

SubscriberI've seen a few more extremes up my way too. I hope that it's no illusion and that more people are buying from the Defender range, which hopefully LRA will notice.
Oh and ALWAYS wave to series drivers. They're just Defenders without the coils.... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img] 8)

Saw a guy in a disco earlier today, he watched me as i drove past but didnt wave. I looked right back, maybe a wave would have been easier. Matt

SubscriberI wave to everyone that drives a land rover, the best bit is seeing the reaction from the new rangie owners, they give you the impresion you might be stalking them [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif[/img]

Now now dont get the wrong idea, i was staring at him thinking to myself what is his problem, and he was staring at me going what the hell is with this guy. I should have just waved and been done with it. MattOriginally posted by VladTepes

On the way back from our weekend last Sunday evening a shiny white Td5 Disco pulled up alongside me at the traffic lights.Originally posted by Ace

My disco is wearing the weekend's mud and carrying half a tonne of gear.
I turned to have a look as did he. He waved. 8O
Stunned for a moment I waved back. He put his foot down when the light turned green and disappeared in a puff of soot.
Maybe it was just a challenge but I think not.
