Angry Come on, North East - WAVE

I've seen loads this week. No waves, just breaking necks to get past mine or sticking their noses in the air
I give up

After owning the scoob for a month now, I'm starting to think this waving malarky is an "in crowd" joke lol. I've not had anyone wave at me yet, and when I've waved at them I've had that.. "wtf is your problem freak" look from everybody!

I'll keep a lookout for you, I'm in the North east and if someone waves I'll always return the favour

Keep an eyeout for my Scoob

I got a wave about 2 weeks ago, but that was from an EVO
I see a woman, most days at about 4pm. Have waved a couple of times but the fat bag just ignores me. Bet she'd wave back if I was a bloke
If I see any of you lot, I will definately wave

Most women do ignore, when they see another woman driving a scooby. Most men ignore when they have their bird on the passenger seat. I totally understand it, though. I wouldn't wanna cause world warIII in their houshold for **** all, anyway

Scoobies are far too common these days. if I get a wave, good. If I don't, I just go in "who cares" mode. Best way IMO.

I will carry on flashing (my lights)

Lesley, may be, you need to meet another WR, in order to get a sisterly wave/flash

there's a lot of ignorant gits up here.
I drive mainly through Durham and always wave/flash at any other scoobs I see... some wave back.. others don't.
there have been instances tho.. where someone has waved @ me.. but it was last minute when I saw them.... so it might look as tho i'm being ignorant

keep at it 84 hun.. you'll get a wave soon !

I still wave at people when I see them in time. Get mixed results ranging from waves and a smile back, to the middle finger

I got a wave today (Silver STI, Blobeye) and one yesterday (Black STI, Hawkeye) both in Redcar.

Normally get a few flashes & waves around Darlington as well.

Its a 50/50 chance of getting something back around here (Teesside), however i do try

Never get anything from a WR1 I see around, just a blank look, he has done this for 3 years, gave up on him a long time ago

Well, I've been up in Durham for just over a year now and there is a distinct lack of waving compared to down south. Anyway, worry not, I will continue to wave.

Phil (22B)

PS. the missus drives an RB5 and says guys in scoobs are always waving at her( ) and she waves back if she sees them.

It was a perfectly good comment.

a 75 Year old waman isnt going to be waving now is she and if u flash your lights she probaly will think she has a puncture.!!!

And yes Pensioners do drive scoobys.... Famers Wifes especialy
