well... what a surprise hey!

I read about it, but didnt think any of it... until yesterday!

I've only had my first scoob since last week, so yesterday there I was waiting to get on the roundabout, another guy goes past me on a scoob and gets his arm out to say "hello" !!

Now... Im a biker, so the "nod" is something natural between bikers, unless you are a grumpy old fart on a harley lol...

I drive Land Rovers... and us driving around old tratters, also have the wave...but then again, Land rovers are an iconic mark in British engineering...

in the scoob?? I never expected it to happen so fast!!

 

I get the wave or the headlights flashed at me regular round here mate, all I can say is be prepared for the people that don't cuz they're miserable tossers lol

 

I didn't understand it at all when I first had my scooby, it was a "who's that, I don't recognise him" for a good few weeks until I realised what was going on.

 

 

there's quite a few people wi scooby's in county durham area and almost every one of them gives a "scooby wave"(named by ma kids) but a must say on traveling to doncaster area there dont seem to be many scooby wave's they must all be mardi ***** lol

 

i get a few every now and then . not as many as i used to though

 

Has mine 2 weeks today and I'm still waiting for my first wave :-(

 

I find you get a friendly wave from more enthusiasit owners, and get ignored by young chavs with cheap knackered classics, the latter tending to be the ones driving around roundabouts on 2 wheels giving us a bad name lol

 

i 100% agree with that one but where do i stand as i have an classic impreza but dont drive round on 2 wheels although it would save on tyre's i supose there's subaru drivers then there's wanabee subaru drivers.....................

 

I was waiting at a roundabout when some lads in a sport wagon with a huge exhaust came round far too fast, saw me waiting and nearly crashed as they were just staring at my car .. lol

 

So fast ? I'm not sure everyone knows how long you've had it

 

that is a very good point! ^^

 

first post says that he only got it last week

 

Rather that than having the clap.

 

yep but the other scooby drivers you meet on the road won't know that, he could have had it for years for all they know

 

hey?? lol

does that even make sense??

 

Ok its friday afternoon, I'm killing time on here rather than working so here goes lol

In your first post you're suprised to be getting waves after only owning a scoob for a couple of weeks, what Pimmo and me are saying is that other people driving around in their cars and waving to you dont know that you've only just picked it up ......

Hope that helps, I'm off to drink some beer to help me speak lol

 

I was like above.. wondering why people were waving at me.. makes me feel popular..

2 scoobies at a cross roads: you go, no you go, no i insist..
2 ford drivers at a cross roads: MOVE YOU FAT BASTID !!! BEEEEEP

 

i wait till i get waved at Before waving back so i dont look a loon

 

i wave and have had the wave but it gets my back up when people dont wave back.they must have had other scooby drivers wave to them and clicked on by now.

 

Some people aren't 'into' the waving thing though. Like me.

It feels awkward and dare I say it, is slightly sad -- but that's prob. more of a reflection on my age and (slightly lol) curmudgeonly deameanour.

 

Quoted for truth!

 

Hoot! Set in stone.

 

Had my first wave a few of days ago. Just before the turn of for Bury st Edmunds. Well chuffed.

 

Better to get the wave than the clap

 

I get a few waves and do wave myself which is followed quickly by "loser" in my left ear.

 

Pretty much none of the scooby drivers wave back in east yorkshire! Flashed what looks to be the white rcm hatchback that was featured in banzai yesterday for the second time and got a dirty look! same with a classic wagon, although he did look a bit of a chav.

seems like the traditions dying out to me..

 

lol

 

I refer the Rt. Hon. Gentleman to a post (# 14 ^^^) I gave some days ago.

 

I passd a scooby exactly the same as mine on Monday, black 03 sti. I gave the wave, he looked and turned away, left me feeling like a *** big time. Anyway saw him again today, I flashed, he looked and I gave a different kind of wave, something that looked like this

I was very amused at his reaction
