Most wave back , but not the grumpy P1 owner driving into Weybridge from M25 J11 at 7:45 each morning, or the DBM near Weybrdige station at 7:35ish.....
It doesn't really matter, but makes you feel better.

Nope not a major issue, just people being friendly
Try it sometime... you may find it cheers you up

Just cause someone doesn't wave, flash or acknowledge you!
if that is all you live for I feel depply sorry for you[/quote]

Apologies for not waving at the black scoob as I was coming out of Gardiners Lane in Basildon at 3.30 this pm. Was singing my head off, and paying too little attention to anything around me, until it was too late.

Rebecca, some people might buy a scoob because they always kick **** in the JD Power survey, and not knowing what it's all about, (fire suit on) they see it as a Volvo esk car for half the price. Or they just liked the look of it.....personaly I love the bloody things (NO I don't sleep with it but I bet some of you do)

Just flash your rear fog light a few times. I did it to a red scoob on the M4 on Saturday..works a treat.

I will wave, and very, very ocasionally flash, all impreza's regardless of model. Does seem to make some old dears in 5 door GL's seem a bit worried though
If I don't wave at you then it's probably because I'm looking at the road, and so should you
seriously though. I do feel proud when I get wave or flash back from another owner. Oh and if I don't see the scoob then Suzy, Jam, or Ali will have and say 'oh look a scooby!' usually acompanied, from the kids that is, with a 'oh, it's not a fast one!' if it's not a turbo. Kids, doncha just luv em!
BTW - anyone on here follow the beast back from bluewater onto the M25 turnoff on Sunday? if so then sorry for brake testing you, I was looking at you in the rear mirror and then saw the brake lights in front of me, did scare me
Oh, and it was not foggie so why'd you have the fog lights on (only kidding!)

I wave to all prezas, and I get about a 50:50 ratio of waves back. I've waved at an evo VI by mistake (felt very silly) and once I waved at a full scoob turbo - all 4 people waved back. I was very moved.
Mungo, what ya' drivin'? I'll keep an eye out for ya (I live in weybridge and commute to bracknell)

Good grief,
I didn't realise that not waving like a lunatic offended people that much.
Will rectify my ways. Mind you its dark on the way into work, and dark on the way home.
I apologise to any Scooby owner that I haven't waved to
Mark
PS Can I put a waving hand on me dash ~ or would that seem tacky ?????
