First wave

I got my first wave on the first day out driving my Mini! I was on Woodside Way in Glenrothes turning in to my work so it was over before I had time to actually give a full on wave back!! It was from a very cheery looking dude driving a sky blue Mini, looked like a Cooper but I could be wrong!!

If you are on here, I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to wave back - try again next time ;) :cool:

I live in Glenrothes and have a unit in Markinch next to the Co-op where I do valeting and sell the odd car, I have a blue clubman and my friend has a toffee brown clubman which he keeps there and I give it a run now and then to keep the battery charged. If I see you I'll give you a wave :thumbs up:

As William said, it's great when Mini folks wave. Back in the 'early days' there was a whole lot of waving, flashing and mutual greeting going on, but that seems to have almost died out now. I still tend to give other Minis a wave, but most of them just look blankly or as if I'm mental... which I am. I rarely flash these days, as it contravenes the Court Order.

I think as the MINI has become more popular these day, and not so unique a sight on the road, the waving seems to have died away which is a pity. All the scooby and landrover defender guys all still flash and wave though which makes the mini waving thing dying even stranger.....:thud:
