Post by: Godzilla on 04 April 2008, 19:07

I don't wave, but they usually look and I look back - kind of an acknowledgement/appreciation thing going on I think  :laugh:

Most of the time i wave, i get one back. But then, most people in Devon are bonkers anyway!!!

Don't get it in the Golf, which is a shame as I'm used to it in the Mini!
Title: Re: The MK2 wave!
Post by: jamie_pyrite on 05 April 2008, 00:22
I usually smile, sometimes wave though.

I keep waving when I'm driving my brother's civic then wonder why I don't get some form of acknowledgement/recognition back from them! Probably thinking "who's this ricer?!"

:(

Since having the valver in Essex I have waved at all and all have waved back. I make sure that it is 'modified' golf, as the non modded ones are owned by 'Dads' that don't realise what they have got  :rolleyes:. Very friendly where I am, even MK1s and MK3s are waving :smiley:

Title: Re: The MK2 wave!
Post by: Dolly on 06 April 2008, 09:16

but i always see mk2 golfs when im in my other car.. ( Seat ibiza Gti ) and i cant justify flashing in a poor relation

She likes fast cars!!  She is thinking about getting a Golf GTI MK2 and getting it converted to a 20v Turbo.

So true!  :laugh:

I "look" at other golfs, probably for a split second too many when driving but most are driven by more "mature" drivers, but not been waved or flashed at :grin:

Don't get it in the Golf, which is a shame as I'm used to it in the Mini!

Yep it happened almost without fail when I ws a Mini man.
Started making an effort to wave at Mk2s now and most respond.
Spread the love people  :kiss:

Almost every day on the way to work, in Oxford, i drive past the same guy in another white mk2 gti. I always get a flash and wave, be interested to know if he's on here!

I waved at someone in a modded mk2 earlier and just got a look of discust back :huh: he was abit to 'scene' i think...
Title: Re: The MK2 wave!
Post by: Blazing Storm on 08 April 2008, 18:40
I never wave/flash at Golfs. The people that drive them down here aren't friendly like you might expect. I'm not sure they even give a sh!t what car they are driving.
