Post Newage Owners

Why do newage owners drive around with there noses stuck up in the air, passed by two today not so much as a smile let alone a wave, to these i say life must be a sh*t for you when things go wrong and nobody comes a running, wake up make the most of your life you wont get another one..

Think the problem is a lot of newage owners are not car enthusiasts, a lot of them are company cars/rep cars. Where as most classic arenow owned by people who want and apprecaite the cars.

I wave to newage and classics, TBH I find it's the classics that don't wave back to us newage drivers.

Is this an US and THEM syndrome.....!

John not all us newage owners are like that i'll wave to anyone think it just depends on whether they're a miserable git or not.
I've passed ,and waved i might add to two classics and a blobeye in the past couple of days and have recieved the same response or lack of as you mate. Seems we'll just have to keep on trying ,you never know they may come round or just sell up and buy a Fiesta.
What car you got mate and where abouts are ya so when i wave i'll know it's you.

Cheers
Chris

I wave to all but its mostly only classic owners that wave back - my misses thinks its the most geeky thing I do (apart from argue with people I've never met on Scoobynet )

I did get a wave from a guy in a grey 06 - which was nice

First one I've seen on the road

No, only "nearly" all BMW drivers are t0ssers, especially the reps in there 318's, they think they own the roads. There is only one sort of BM to drive and it must have an "M" in it's name.

I think it is all part of the experience

I have a newage and always wave (except to the guy in the green classic who waved at me yesterday when I was half asleep on the blackwood > tredegar road - by the time I waved back he was well past me.

Sorry if that was you

On the return from our visit to Prodrive, while in the company of a very well respected classic owner and other members of our select group (no names due to pending trial) it happened again, total blank, would appear this virus may well be spreading to other parts of rhe country, hopefully japfest/sso should nip this in the bud before it becomes a empidemic,.

John, We all know classic's are faster (DBM being the quickest), newage drivers just can't hack it, so ignore us.
