We Volvo drivers don't wave. A tip of the flat cap is sufficient. @McGherkin
Ph 1 172, Focus 1.6
Used to wave at fellow 5 GT turbo owners and I always got a wave back.

Nothing to prove. No overdose of testosterone. Just an old girlie with a French car and an Italian motorbike who knows how to have fun with them!

At work we always wave at colleagues as well as fire engines and ambulances.
I quite often find myself waving at them whilst in my own car out of habit. They generally look at me like I'm a bit 'special' 😂

Clio 182
I got a wave off another titanium 182 the other day which took me by surprise but tend not to wave at other clios myself. Anything old or interesting i tend to give a flash (of lights) and the thumbs up to though, most respond with a wave.
When I had my 172 someone in a 1*2 waved me which caused my ex at the time, who was sitting in the passenger seat, to ask who that was. As I didn't have a clue I just shrugged my shoulders and said I didn't know.
She then wouldn't leave it as clearly I must've known them if they were waving at me, which resulted in us having a full blown argument about it and ruining the rest of my day. It wasn't until after I then realised why they must've been waving.
So, yeah, whoever that was, cheers for that! 😅

I remember waving at someone once. Their Mrs looked at the driver really strangely...
Lol. Yeah, she was a bit psycho that one. Smoking hot though.
No, it's a bit weird unless you know them/see them around a lot. Not like they're particularly rare.

Standard night of conversation with me and the wife ha ha
Clio172 phase 1
I have passed a few 172/182 sports that don't even turn their neck at my black phase 1. I personally think that is due to the subtleness of the phase 1. I did however get a great reaction from the Asda delivery driver. "Is that your car.." Thinking he was referring to my Subaru. "No the black phase 1". He was loving it lol
182 Inferno
I was followed by an incredible white 106rallye in Gateshead few month back, I got super excited.
He then pulled up next to me at traffic lights. I had the biggest smile on my face, made eye contact and give him a thumb... He just looked at me expressionless!
Why the f**k was he not buzzin in his rallye?! It was so white and lush and ahhh!

I'd be f**king terrified if someone pulled up at the side of me at the traffic lights and gave me a thumb. How many thumbs do you carry and why
Have flashed back a Megane 265 trophy, saw each other a few times and acknowledged each other but the 265 has since been sold so my Megane friend has gone :tongueclosed:
Got a wave from a fella driving a Gordini 200 in coulsdon the other day and I waved back
There's a blue 200 that's local as well but she never registers any acknowledgement so never bothered with that one again.

Clio 172, Escort RST
Aren't they just?
With the RST I will often give a wave the same kind of peeps that you say or even other retro Ford owners (mkII Escorts etc.). Generally I get a wave back.
With the 172 I do tend to wave, well, raise a hand up while on the steering wheel when seeing another Renault Sport Clio. 6/10 times I'll get a wave back, generally from the peeps with 1*2 Cups. A bloke here in an Exclusive probably things "WTF is that?" and the Trophy guys NEVER wave back around here (I know of two in Leamington). I did once have a 197 give me a thumbs up as I was behind the car when driving down the Fosse Way. It was definitely not down to either of us pressing the gas pedal in the twisties...
But I have come from owning wierdy beardy cars TBH, including a Triumph Stag, Spitire & a Dolly Sprint, MGBs, MG Midget and a couple of Porker 944s. I guess maybe us retro owners waved to quote Team America World Police "Everything is Fine...".

I always glance at the driver before hand before i'll commit to giving a nod... which either works great or turns into us both having one of those 'what the f**k is he staring at' moments.
I don't wave, i'd feel like a dick if he didn't wave back!

There was this one guy on my way to work in the same car as me when I used to live at home and drive to work. I used to wave to him every single day as we used to cross paths at roughly the same part daily.
He never ever waved back but I relentlessly waved to him for about a month and a half whenever I saw him.
