You won't get it off everyone though. I find you don't get as many waves off the new imprezas, its mainly from the classics.

Yep would agree with that, classic's almost always, bug eyes, probably 15% at best.

I always give the 'Full Rimmer' salute to other Scoob drivers.

Rude not to.

Its funny you lot are saying that because whenever ive been out in my newage i always wave and very rarely get one back from anyone in a classic!! i went past 5 in about 10 minutes and didnt get acknowledged once......unlucky it may be but i think it works both ways guys!

I've found the worst offenders for not waving are the Scoob estates driven by mainly miserable looking middle-aged people ... in my little universe midle-aged being 40+

Sometimes I don't wave, but that's usually because I haven't realised it's a Scoob until too late ... if only they'd drive slower I'd have a chance of reacting in time

Yeah - the beardy ones as well (regardless of what they drive). But in general I've found hardly anyone in a New Age waves at me (in my NewAge one now) and slightly less classics do now then when I had my old Turbo or the P1.

STi8 drivers are the worst - only one has ever waved at me (and that was just up the road from where I live). Miserable so and so's.

I'm a classic owner - but dont think there is any trend between classic/new and wavers/miserable gits...
Strikes me the miserable gits are either miserable gits or just havent caught on (it took me half an hour from when I picked mine up to catch on)...
I wave at any scoob - its a community - and god love it...

Always wave (MY01 WRX Wagon). Used to wave when I had my Stag, waved in my '69 midget, my sister waved in her VW camper and my wife waves in her MX5! If the cars are loved by enthusiasts then you'll get a wave or a flash of lights.

A Sport driver waved back at me other day. Sports usually shun me
