Are more people waving these days?

BigAde · 8th September 2016, 14:22

Don't know if it's just my imagination (don't think it is), but I seem to think that more people are waving these days. ZT drivers that is, I've only ever had about 2 waves off 75 drivers for some reason. I think I've had waves off at least 8 out of the last 10 ZTs I've passed (no, not all the same one). It was only three and a half years ago that I started ZT ownership, but I very rarely got a wave back then.

Maybe they're just taking pity at the state of my bonnet

, but I'm not sure of the reason.

I reckon the majority of ZT's left are owned by people who have an affection for them, and who are in owners clubs and the like, hence they usually wave back

Don't really get chance to wave or flash as hardly ever pass any lol

I see lots of Rover 75's saloons/tourers around me but hardly ever get a wave back.

Unfortunately I'm still in the "that was not really a wave, I was just going to scratch my face" phase as people ignore my half wave.
