I'm afraid swearing is endemic on CB - more's a pity.

These are far too expensive to ride!

When I drove series models everyone waved,then I got the defender and most deefa drivers wave back,i've been waving at all the locals ones alot because they seem to not know the rules before I moved here,I do wave at one D2,Brians because he lives here but in the L322 I don't wave mostly because I'm always overtaking from behind or going past at a great rate of knots so there's no time.

Freelander drivers.......... do they really know what ther are driving anyway?

OYE!!! I drive a Freelander and I know what I am driving, my problem is when I wave at people who think they are driving "real" Landrovers, they look down their nose at you!!!

I think the problem is that many newer owners of LR haven't realised there is a family into which they've bought. To them, the Landie is just another car.

I thought they were both ok......However for me the 50th was better, great camaraderie at Snowtells.

Just WAVE
