Land Rover "wave backs"

Evening all

I m a bit of a traditionalist. My faith has been restored thanks to the good LR people of The Cotswolds. 7/7 L/R drivers waved back Thumbs Up Bow down Thumbs Up

I seem to get too many weird looks when I wave. Have considered making grille LR badge able to light up so I can do a LR flash.

The only time I used to get people waving back was when I had a defender. In my area you try but they look at you as though your stupid.

Swmbo and I wave but don't think we've ever had a wave back, I was starting to think that we're an unfriendly lot.
 Cheers Scott.

England 2016 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 Graphite LE Auto Loire BlueDiscovery 4

When I used to ride my bike, I always used to exchange head nods with passing bikes, except when in London.

Debate was whether to acknowledge learners. I did, but many of my friends didn't.

I'd happily wave to other Disco drivers but round here (south Bucks) I think it would only get weird looks in response.
