    Maybe we should get the guys from "Chaser's War on Everything" to have a crackdown? You know where the guy dresses up like a traffic warden and gives people fines for things like having stupid ringtones on their mobile or giving their children silly names, etc.
    I'm sure they'd be happy to set up a 'random wave test' checkpoint and fine people for failing to wave at another Land Rover driver.

    DAMN, i barely ever get a wave, most of the local guys in disco's dont seem to know about it and just give the "Do i know you?" look, and the series and defender drivers dont seem to class the discos as landies i dont think so they dont wave either.... but occasionaly i get a wave...

    I have been having to control myself from waving since I'm in a little camira. So at the moment I grin like an idiot at them and point them out if someone is with me.

    I get them normally other deefer drivers will beat me to it when im being inattentive and since thats usually when SWMBO is in the car I get a dig in the ribs and a jybe bout not getting in first, what kind of rover nut am I.

    Cant think of the last time I missed getting a return from the deefer crowd.
    Cant think of the last time I got one started from a disco or rangie but almost always get em back
