Defender to Disco = Unlikely as Defender not expecting it. And disco too busy with the kids/labrador etc.
Disco to Disco = unknown (help here ?)
Defender to Rangie = Unlikely to happen. Although sometimes jealous looks from Rangie driver, through Armarni sunglasses.
Defender to Forward Control = probably stop, get out and have a chat
Forward Control to Forward Control = probably stop, chat about fuel consumption, have dinner, marry etc
Rangie to Rangie = Er no.

So you know of the Homo Hippo,
They hang large incandecent hoop ear rings from its mirrors during the parade.

I admit they have been given a bad rap though, but don't worry, like the Rav 4 the popularity of this model is ensured by the Freelanders ability to park in tight spaces, it's good all around vision for tight reverse parks and a very robust rear bumper for all of them inner city shunt like manoevours. It is let down buy it's tendency to "blow Heads" and require regular headjobs to keep the K series happy. It is however very capable in a sloppy back paddock with a decent set of Mud Terrains fitted.

BUT

If a disco driver waved at me I'd be like the stunned mullet I reckon and so shocked I wouldn't be able to do anything but be gobsmacked :D

jeeeezzzz i wish you lived over this of town..... i would wave every day just like I do now ....but no waves at me:(


Mrs ho har:D:D

seems like a 'put down a mate in a landy' thread.
i wave to all landys, 'cept ones that are obviously not going to return the courtesy.
like sport, rr top of the range jobbies and the like.
i get a few back too.
it's interesting how persistance pays too, i see some most morning and night, interesting to see how some finally return the gesture, and some now get the wave in first.

I wave to all landies - series, rangies, deefers, discos, freeos....some wave back, some don't. Such is life. My missus says..."Why do you persist..?" I say, "It's the right thing to do.."

:)

I drive a Disco and I wave to all of Sollihulls products as a matter of courtesy.
Rangie and Freelander drivers tend to give me a blank stare, Deefer drivers sometimes wave, Series drivers always wave.
The fact that my Disco looks like it gets used off road induces waves the most I reakon.

Yes I wave lots from my "girlie" D2, at all sorts, but rarely if ever get anything back. I know its not a rock crawler but it aint stock either...

Still, the the same with the Heep...TJ Wrangler drivers nearly always wave but the new JK Wranglers...few and far between...ah well.
