Default SCOOBY WAVE???

Has anybody ever had the "Scooby Wave" from another Scoob driver on a Motor way going the other way?? I Think that if you have, then it should count for and least 10 Scooby Points/Snacks

I have another scooby girl wave at me most nights in Longton, Stoke on Trent. The only scooby drivers who don't wave back seem to be the owners of new ones (sorry if that offends some)

Pop quiz Hot Shots - What do you do if a Evo Driver Waves at you. I had this twice now on a Sat Mornings from the same driver. I feel that it's work of the Devil Well his car is Red!

Perhaps he just wants a friend, it must be very lonely having an Evo !!!!

I've yet yet to get a wave out of a non Subaru Impreza Turbo owner. The type of people who buy the car without the turbo and are happy that the MPG are so good. we must educate them with the way of the wave. THEY WILL WAVE TO ME - WAVE DAMM YOU!!!

sorry too much coffee this afternoon.

Yeh, take it easy on the coffee !

When I first had my scooby everyone used to wave and when I drove my boyfriends EVO (now sold) other EVO drivers used to wave. Now they don't seem to bother - miserable buggers

Scooby drivers seem much friendlier than cozzie drivers. Cozzie drivers just seem to be bothered about who has the quicker car.

On a slightly different subject, I drive down a lot of country roads. What is the best way of informing someone that they have there front Fog lights on and that it's annoying. Any suggestions??

I wouldn't wave back. Your car will never forgive you. This is the equivalent of being out with your wife, and some stunning blonde with massive norks, blows you a kiss, and you blow one back. Right in front of the old ball and chain.

You are just asking for car trouble if you wave back.

I usually pull over onto thier side of the road, stop, forcing them to do like wise. Get out of my car, and urinate on thier fog lamps.

quad cibie driving lamps.. used to work on my old mini anyhow.. especially when they used to try and flash full beam back - I couldn't tell because the cibies totally washed out their headlights

Haven't had the nerve to fit a driving lamp pod to the bonnet of the Impreza yet though.

- oh.. and I own a bug and wave to everyone.

As for the wave. I wave to Evos and Scoobys. I get more waves back from Evos (Evo 7 and earlier) than I do Scoobys though

I've only got a sport, but I always wave.
I hate to say it, but it's usually girls who don't wave back!

I got a wave from a Plod in his scooby in north yorkshire.....unfortunately it was one of those "over to the side of the road" waves, whereupon he made me wait like a naughty schoolboy while he checked out the brand spanking new A3 I was driving for "defects or mods".....it had 11 miles on the clock.
Did he think I was Paul Daniels or something ??

I gave him a wave of my own when I pulled away. But if I'm honest, I'm a soft ****, so I probably checked he wasnt looking first.

I'll get my coat......

Well that's one option. Although that does rather rely on you carrying a bottle of **** in the car. Not a beauty.

Let me think about it and i'll come up with a solution for you.
