    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.
    LMAO
    This is so right. Should we call it "pommies law".

    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.

    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.
