There are more D4 I had seen when I drop off kids at schools, of cos most lady drivers. I got praised for my well equipped D4 from one of mums, I will not wave them in the city but any Landy on country road. Let's wave to those whom to really take their Landy around the country rather than go to work or pick up kids only, because we kept the legend alive. Not sure about D5 or all new defender yet?
cheers,
We play 'Count the Products' now because of those LR owners ignorant of the vehicle's requirement to acknowledge/wave to similar ilk. Don't LR drivers know they have to do their vehicle's bidding?
On a recent trip Melbourne to Tweed Coast via Balranald, 122 specimens spotted (and waved at), 2 waves! Poorly trained, I'd assert. We'll have to include it in course material...

Funny you should say that Pete,,, if the salesman doesn't know, you cant expect him to pass it on to the newbie.Quote:

It made the feeling of arriving home that little bit more special when my wave was promptly returned. [smilebigeye]
Well equipped. Might be the clue.Quote:

I drove to Thredbo on Thursday in my RRS complete with skis on the roof and latte's in the cup holders. I made a point of waving to every defender, disco, and other Land Rover I saw. Not one single reply. Lots of bemused deefers around Canberra.
So, it's not all one sided!

A Landrover is a Landrover, I would have waved back Mate [thumbsupbig]Quote:

On the drive home today finishing our trip we waved to 4 Discos and got one in return. Not good chaps, smarten up a bit and wave to all other "D"s please.
