land rover waive. A thing of the past?

<< < (2/13) > >>

Jim-Willy:
No way, not in Yorkshire or anywhere.  Just went Scandinavia and over there you get headlamps windows down orgasmically enthusiastic (is that a word) waves, it way cool.  I don't wave to freelanders/discos/RR's cos most of them aren't enthusiasts but i wave back if they do, but series and defender drivers always wave/flash usually before i do in this country (apart from the odd grumpy arsed farmer).  It winds up folk who are in the truck with me no end. One lass who was riding with me summed it up, she said it was like being in a huge family. (She is after a Disco now, HE, HE)

I get waived at all the time, granted not by any new 4x4's especially LR's but the old ones yes.

I get a waive every morning from a 90.

I think it's great, and the wife often say's "do you know that person?" Which I say "no". "So why waive" she say's? "Because there're driving a Landie"  :D

Its cos tha's a Yorkshireman, folk don't come more friendly than us.  Gods own county.

Andy the Landy:
Series motors and 90's wave round here - they even wave when I flash the lights and wave from the coach :D

robbie:
We have just bought a 90 which my lad drives mainly. He noticed within a few days that 'strange men' waived at him for no apparent reason except they were driving a Land Rover . . . . . . .

Difficult to explain when I spent years warning him of strange men being friendly for no reason as he was growing up  :wink:

It is a god thing though, and he waives back now.....  :lol:

 I agree with that as gave a lass a lift home from work last week and she was baffled as to why this guy in a series was waiving and I wavied back.
she asked if I knew them and just said no its just what landy drivers do.
But I think its just not as comon as once was
