Be rude not to wave although it is a problem when I am in the Mondeo and I wave. Sometimes I have to pretend im actually erm well i dunno doing my hair or something! (i'm not gay or owt!)

But seriously when I dont get a wave back its just plain igonornace, well its just not on is it!

Always thought this was a bit of a myth that scooby drivers waved to each other.

Still I thought that I'd give it a go. Only had the car for a month and only seen 4 others to wave at the first two in impreza saloons completely blanked me.

The third in a new Impreza GX Wagon looked at me like I had just crapped on his bonnet. So I thought bugger this for a lark.

Then on Sunday got a wave just outside Coventry and took me completely unawares. He probably thought, miserable git!

So I shall have to give it another go

I do and I dont.I flash my lights instead.Waving is more personal IMO.If you flash lights and there isn't any response,you dont feel that bad.TBH,hardly anyone acknowledges in my area.Thats why i have really cut down even on flashing lights.

If I see one will always wave and if I get the chance will flash my lights too. Only had my classic 3 months now and lost track how many people have either waved at me or I've waved at. It's a great feeling being a part of the Scooby family now

I always wave in my new age. Was out with a colleague a while back, and he goes "that bloke just waved at you, wtf?".


I explained, and got a fair amount of mickey taken with the rest of the team - doesn't stop me though.

Funniest thing I saw was two 'smart' (lol) car drivers waving at each other - call me a car snob, but surely they were both apologising for making the same mistake??

Get back to muppets, you don't have a pass-out signed by Sammy.

I always wave, and if I ever see you on the road, I will flash you.

Got some great wavers in Widnes, friendly town to have a Scoob in.
