i do lol i think most do to

it used to be mate but i'm not sure if it's dying out now?

i haven't been flashed at in ages now, although i haven't seen many modified older dubs about either if i'm honest, maybe a lot of them are off the road for the winter?

i wave, thumbs up or flick the lights on at every modded (non chavy) dub i see, new or old skool.

Yeah I wave / thumbs up / flash. A lot of the time just get weird looks but oh well. Had a fair few encounters with fellow dubbers this weekend.

I've always flash the lights/ thumbs up when I've been in the dub..... but got into a bit of a habbit now and do it when I'm driving the works van (Iveco :lol: ) and get some reet weird looks lol 8-)

I always do, rarely get anything back.

When my dad used to drive a subaru, he got a reply everytime.

i also know VW Bus/beetle drivers to it a lot

Just got a mental image of "the signal" from Team America.

Always do, always will.

I always give a toot and a wave to air cooled stuff though :lol:

nope, everyone's a degenerate.

always give a thumbs up to the few around here. get flashed back more when I'm in aircooled stuff though

I flash if i can be bothered to move my hand :lol:

I'm quite slow you see so most of the time they've driven past me before I even clock onto why they're flashing or giving me a thumbs up :(

on the rare occasion when I'm concentrating whilst driving :oops: I'll give that chav style nod that you do.

one time I even turned my wipers on instead of flashing, should be a new thing IMO. :lol:

I always give a little flash or a thumbs up :thumbsup:

us dubbers round my way wave, thumbs up or horn each other. abit weird first time it happened to me lol

i even get old skool fords and minis wave, which is nice.

RETROO

I'll nod my head, maybe flash them but that's about it!

I only communicate with other motorists when needed,i dont invite them to pull out etc as its not my place to do so and doing so can be dangerous. And my attention is better spent on other elements.

But i didn't see any harm in lifting a finger (not the middle one) to some other classic mini drivers when i drove one,as i do as thanks for people stopping for me and letting me past when there are obstructions on their side.

But a modded newer shape Polo? I dont see the point. I dont really care unless its someone i know,and if its someone on here i probably wont know who you are anyway.

So a wave from me is unlikely to be about your car,unless there'r something falling off it. The last time i had a mutual wave due to the cars,it was when running along side an early 60's Morris Mini-Minor in my Polo. It was too cool to ignore.
