Default Ever get the thumbs up from Other Marques?
Was taken by suprise today its never happened before, took the car out for a little drive and get the thumbs up from an on coming Evo then about 10mins later get a nod from a Skyline R34 driver get plenty of nods, waves flashes etc off other scoobys but never off anything else

Anyone else had a nod etc off other Marques?

With anything Rally related there is usually an exchange of flashing lights. As for other marques, the highlight has to be the 430 Scuderia giving me the thumbs on the M25.

I had two lads in a new Astra VXR give me the thumbs up after some spirited driving through a tunnel. In fact - they did it two or three times within the space of a mile or so.

Usually get grins from Porkers and Evo drivers always want to try and cut me up

I get plenty of EVO drivers giving me the wave, I have also started waving Evo drivers as well as Scoobies, Just a general appreciation of similar cars I guess
