land rover waive. A thing of the past?
thermidorthelobster:
I get occasional waves, from Defenders mostly, now I have the snorkel on the Discovery. (The roofrack means you could be a commercial user, but the snorkel seems to give credibility as an off-roader.)
In Iceland we waved at all the other Land Rovers, but only the non-Icelandic ones ever waved back. (Icelanders aren't the most emotionally demonstrative of people :) )
In the 101 you usually get looks of blind panic from the oncoming traffic - the drivers are too busy trying to get out of the way to wave :shock:
thermidorthelobster:
Equally, by the way, I tend to wave at Defenders, but not so much at Discoveries, because Discovery drivers tend just to look puzzled. Again, the exception is usually Discoveries with snorkels.
J2O:
I don't think the wave is becoming anything less. However I've only being driving our 90 full time for the past 6 months. Since then I've carefully been cultivating a small group of wavers. I'm quite proud that I've now got several surly farmers who wave every day. (I'm still working on the industrial crew and the local army boys). Tomorrow I'm picking up my Disco so I'll have to see what reaction I get then.

I seem to get plenty of waves. I dont usualy waive to non modded disco's though as they dont seem to get it. Nearly all series and defenders/counties waive back. I think the mods help and the fact it looks like a monster truck.
I went to the local shopping centre yesterday and got lots of stares!! One family stopped putting their shopping in the boot to gawp!
I hope waving doesnt die out as it has been much of the expierience for a very long time. I got more waives 10 years ago in my v8 series 3 though.....wonder where she is now???
