Default Reverse of the norm

I have seen a fair few cars and posted on here but don't think I have ever found the person...

So a slight reverse on the norm if I may ?

Someone please spot me !!!! flash me, nod, raise a finger (not the middle one) and pull me over for a chat if you want always happy to mooch around other owners cars and let them poke around with mine.

Its an 04 plate ending 'XLZ' in the West Midlands mainly Aldridge, Walsall, Lichfield area and sometimes going to Coventry and back on weekday mornings around 7am and 5pm.

Pic attached to help (has Apex alloys although colour may be changed by Sat, RadioGuy Rear light clusters, Front Seat Leon splitter & NEW non OEM badges.

Look forward to being discovered.

Perhaps we need to do what the TrainSpotters do (no not heroin!) but compile list and tick them off

An official forum and owners Wave... excellent I can only think of a few known waves :-

1. Close encounters of the 3rd kind hand gestures
2. Forrest Gump style wave
3. Facist straight arms ala Paulo Di Canio
4. The Queens official wave to the subjects
5. White Van man gesture (where he shows you the letter 'O')

Since I've had mine I've been almost staring-out the drivers of Rover's and MG's I'm coming across, hoping for some sort of reciprocated recognition.

Not classic enough cars..yet.

I always get waves from other classics, in the P6. Even had the odd one from 75 owners when I've been in the P6. When I had the MX-5, I found that other owners were very good at waving, and there was a real community spirit on the road. For some reason, 75s and ZTs don't have that, yet.

I do wave, and occasionally I get a wave back but most 75 / ZT drivers look at me as if I'm mental.
