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.

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.MY16 D4 Graphite in Loire Blue
I give and receive waves when I am in the D2 to fellow D2/D1 and defender drivers, esp if they are "off road" prepped.
Not had any in the D3 yet !*D3 V8 SE Blue 2004 on LPG with Rock sliders, roof rack/Ladder, snorkel, 275/65x18 STT Muds, engine/G/box ally protection.
*D2 TD5 Epson Green 2002 Off roader (weekend toy)
*D3 V8 HSE silver 2004 on LPG (Wife's) SOLD
*Maserati Gran Turismo, the Gentlemans cruiser with a V8 soundtrack.

Got a wave from a Norwegian D3 owner recently. Not sure if he was waving at me or waving bye-bye to my engine.
