Give us a wave!

[anvil58]

Hi all.

Driving home tonight stuck in traffic I spotted a Fronty coming towards me from the opposite direction
and as it went past myself and the other driver gave each other a glance and sort of quick appretiation
of each others vehicle but in these days of 'road rage' people seem to be reluctant to aknowledge other
road users too much.
This put me in mind of many years ago when I drove an MG BGT and every other MG driver on the road
would give a wave whenever they spotted me (there were a few more 'real' sports cars around then).
I dont mean a yoohoo wave or the type trhe Queen (god bless her) uses - just a lifting of the hand, palm outwards
and steady and hold it for a couple of seconds.
Wouldnt it be nice if we could do the same when we see other Fronties on the road?

ive said it before that ive driven past thousands of vectras when im driving mine and dont really notice them but if i see fronty pass in the other direction i always have a good look & usually if i an in my fronty i notice them looking at mine

Where abouts were you?
I saw a silver b with no front grille and 'said hi'

And back in the day, if you were a member of the AA and had your badge on the front of the car, the AA guys would salute you how about that then maybe the RAC did the same but my dad was a staunch AA man

i joined the aa in approx 1986 [ im still in it now ] & i still have my key for the aa phone boxes somewhere , who remembers them

[john (smifffy)]

i remember when they used motor bike an sidecar an austin 1000 vans an they use to salute you if you were a member

i think ive still got key for AA & RAC box

I get occasional waves from Trooper drivers ... only when they realise mines an Isuzu and not a Disco.

[Mr Mud]

That's what you get driving around in a pretend Disco you should of bought the real thing

[RatCav]

Nah ... I like to reach my destination ... especially with most of my truck still attached.
