  Hi,

  cheers, james

you need to look out for certain charactoristics from the other 4x4's that makes them want to associate with you.

maybe a few dents or a nice layer of thick brown stuff. MAybe a lift or snorkel.

Range Rover Blues:
Nicde ones wave, tight a***s don't ;)

Saffy:
The ones with Ifor Williams galv backs (farmers), working commercial trucks like BT and the MOD will not return a wave and there's loads of all three around here so there is a delay in initiation of a wave exchange between wavers as they figure out what they are looking at. SO our waves are blindly fast close quarter affairs or just a subtle raised finger off the steering wheel.

Interesting when it comes to Series vehicles, some will wave fanatically. Sometimes they turn around and follow for miles in the hope of you pulling over and listening to them talk about their vehicle, other leafers will just totally blank the evil coiler. Then again I won't wave at a puma defender at all or a disco/rangie (unless it's obviously modified).

I do occasional wave at other modified 4x4 like Zooks because you can see the drivers eye well up, they then pull over and have a moment because a landrover owner acknowledged their existence.
