I think because to some Scooby owners they don't realise what they own. To them its a "normal" car to get from A to B!
I always try to wave or flash my lights! I rarely don't get a wave TBH..... but then I suppose thats to be expected after appearing in REDLINE MAGAZINE!!!! (Am I milking this now...... NA!!!!!!)

Always used to wave and a quick flash of the lights when I had mine.

Does seem to be the more enthusiastic owners that acknowledge back.

Don't wave as much as I used too.

Don't seem to get the response as much now, normally just confused looks

When I see one, I wave but TBH the kn*bheads round here drive so badly, I often miss a scoob going the other way as I'm watching what the ***** in front of me are doing...........

Our first Poser's Cruise was in the Corsa... so don't diss it!! So many Scoobys thought we were "other" traffic, and when we pulled up on the side of the road as we arrived at the Seafront, some one actually came over to tell us they were stopping, and that we could drive past!!

My girlfriend was driving the Scoobs the other day. She couldn't work out why another Scoobs flashed her. I was reading the paper, so didn't get a look at it. Told her to at least flash the lights back next time.
