ā¦sorry guys for double postā¦ (bloody internet!!! grrrrā¦)
Hi, I havenāt had my MX5 for long but will make a point of acknowledging other owners, especially if I get up to Bristol
Had return waves from a silver mk1 at Colchester and a red mk 2.5 on the Orwell Bridge yesterday afternoon.Thanks peeps
Good for you, you two strangers very happy and thatās more than most do in a day, iām certainly going to give it a go
Could have sworn that there was a Sunlight Silver Mk3 tooting like crazy with both occupapants waving like idiots at you - only yesterday
I had a lovely wave today from of all things a Triumph Herald convertible!
Obviously a family out for a pleasant afternoonās drive on a glorious day here in Worcester.
The young ladies in the back were obviously very happy and were hell bent on waving enthusiastically to every open-top car they saw 
well, iāve had my car a year now and never had a single wave
today however, on the A421 at about 10am got a wave from a red Mk1, and a silver Mk2/Mk3, sorry didnt notice in time so couldnt tell the difference
than on my way home about 7pm on the A428 i think, another wave from a green Mk1
i should leave the county more often i think
I still remember my first one, Ash ::ahem:
Ignored by a mk3 todayā¦ puzzled look by silver mk2 (no 1) and then a smile from silver mk2 (no2) a little later.
Yesterday, did have a wave from a chap in dark green (donāt think it was BRG) mk2 Sā plate on the A44 at Crossgates. Well it was a cross bet. a wave and thumbs up. Thatāll do me just fine
Drove to work with the top down, waved at a blue MX5 got a puzzled look and no wave back, but arrived at work windswept and happy
Our bosses must be glad that we turn up in a good mood
Although enjoy driving my 5 so much, could be tempted to keep going and not turn up at all!! 
I waved 3 times todayā¦on instruction of this thread lol
-
went to flash the lights but just sprayed water everywhereā¦still getting used to controls being the opposite side
-
pulled out behind another mk1, driven by a woman who acknowledged with a huge rear facing wave, which put me in a really good mood!
-
waved at an old timer in his mk1 and got a bit of a nod.
Ā
not bad for 1 drive home
mk3 driving towards hanley from leek on the A53. Silver car, roof down today shades on.
Message for you:
WAVE YOU MISSERABLE PERSONĀ :(Ā - multiple waves, multiple disgusted looks. yes i have spikey hair and yes iām young but iām enjoying my car and your being stone faced! SHAME ON YOU
Ā Waved at and to Green MK1 on the M4 Today just after the roadworks
Ā
Been waving at loads but mainly get just blank looks
Ā
Come on miseries get with the program.
I know how you feel, iām 26 and get the same reaction, also noticed that woman drivers never wave !!! my apologies to aĀ silverĀ mark1 mx in Barry southĀ WalesĀ who popped there lights at me i was too slow to react !!!
My belief is there are 2 types of MX5 driver, 1. the ones who really love their car and appreciate every part of it, 2. people who just buy one because they are in a mid life crisis or think they ājust look coolā, very annoying to think of all those poor MX5ās being driven by miserable morons !!!
Ā
sorry for the rant 
i was just about to say the same thing,
i am as you can see a young lady driver but when i wave at other women they never wave back. I will keep trying and hopefully one day i might get a wave back.
Not giving up on waving just yet 
Ā I understand the theory of owning a '5 for different reasons, but, donāt give up on us ladies we do wave back, especially here in Bristolā¦donāt we Lynne
Sunday 20th June:
cambridgeshire (Papworth Everard by-pass)ā¦ mk1 driven by blokeā¦ no wave.
worcestershire (road leading to Pershore) ā¦ mk2 driven by blokeā¦ a wave.
There is NO rhyme nor reason.
People say mk3s never waveā¦ YES THEY DO
People say women never wave ā¦ YES THEY DO
Again, i have been ignored by all marks and both sexes. Likewise, i have waves from all varieties as well.
IĀ wont give up, just a little disheartening when no wave back, also feel like a weirdo waving at random woman lol
