OR RATHER - Not Spotted!
Had all last week in Cairns and the Atherton Tableland and only saw ONE Disco 3 and it was on Saturday before flying back to Brisbane.
I was very happy as it was a Bonatti Grey TDV6 S (same as mine) but I was in a Holden Astra so couldn't wave.LeighW

Surprisingly Derek, I have noted that many Disco owners will raise at least a finger from the steering wheel and certainly Disco 2 owners will respond because they are usually trying to have a close look and get sprung.
Although I didn't get a wave from either of the two D3s that pulled up at a set of traffic lights near my place recently. One (an HSE) had dark tinted windows and could have waved but I couldn't see. Still, pretty rare that there was 3 D3s at the one intersection.
Also, when driving my wife's Alfa I often wave other 156 owners and get a responding wave.
Maybe I am showing my age... I'll just go and get my slippers and cardigan - it's starting to get cooler here in Australia now.LeighW
