…yep another wave thread, but the last week has been great !! for months, or maybe even years now i’ve been
’waving in vain’ and in the past week i’ve had 5 MX5’s wave or flash there lights back.
I reckon it’s the good weather … even after over 5 years of ownership a friendly wave still puts a smile on my face.
With the better weather, I suppose more “enthusiasts” will be using their cars (although if they were that enthusiastic surely they wouldn’t lock them up for 6 months of the year! [:)]), and they will be more likely to wave than those who buy them for the pose value.
The area make a huge difference as well - I’ve never had a single response in Edinburgh (I don’t think), but I probably get about a 50-60% success rate in the Falkirk/Stirling area.
One day a couple of months back, I was out, passed 3 cars and got a wave from them all (and got “spotted” in to the bargain).
that’s showing off [;)] … i’ve yet to be spotted. [H]
In Essex in a couple of weekends time, will watch out for you [;)] am running at about a 50% success rate in the Midlands…
In and around Snetterton, Reepham and Taverham today I flashed 5 cars
and ALL 5 flashed back![:D]
We were in convoy with a silver Mk2/Mk2.5 from Blofield to the Norfolk Showground this afternoon, waving like mad to each other [:D]
