What are you doing in a Freelander Mike? Something happened to the D4?
Hard to visualise you sitting in one of those:D

yes, I had one too for the same reason - I was quite impressed.
Keep waving! Especially to D4s around Canberra/Yass, it might be me. Will guarantee a wave unless the wife is driving. :)
Keep up the wave I say.
Although I'm in the UK at the moment, and in the countryside; I reckon you'd drive around constantly waving :-)
I've never seen more Series to FFRR vehicles in my life, they must give Landrovers away here (clearly no LCT) ;-)
Personal challenge time...
I'm heading from Sydney to Cabramurra on Thur and back on Fri...
There will be plenty of opportunity for a wave I'm sure between here and there and back..
I will keep a close count on the waves sent compared to the waves received and report back... Wish me luck

Got a Freeloader loaner from Alto. Engine is much better than previous model. What did they do it it? Was it just a re-map.
Enjoyed driving it, much better than the Ewok loaner I had last time, that had dangerous lag.
I usually wave but I have had a few who waved at me but did not notice until they were past me. So if someone does not wave it does not mean they did not appreciate it.:D
Driving Kalgoorlie to Perth on Sunday. Saw a D3 with a caravan. I went early and big. Got one back. Stoked!
I'm easily amused:D
You've done well getting a wave from any Landrover on that run. I drive it regularly and have pretty well given up - unless it's another D4 that's obviously been set up for touring (I sometimes get a return wave from them).
I get more waves from Jeeps and Toyotas on that run than I do from Landrovers - and NEVER from the many Defender steerers you come across out there. ;)
The results are in...
From Sydney to Canberra then onto Cooma ending up in Cabramurra... Severn full hand off wheel high five style waves dispatched ...... Not a single return :-(
Today, Cabramurra to Thredbo onto Cooma, back to Canberra and finally Sydney.... Nine given and I was losing faith in my fellow LR drivers... About to give myself a wave in the mirror and a D4 coming the other way got a double hander.... Wait for it.... Result !!! I got a friendly wave... I was grinning all the way home..
