Re: i got the Alfa wave!!
Last week trying to join a rush hour line of traffic coming off the A1M at Welwyn a bloke in a Nissan gave me two thumbs up and a big smile and let me in. Obviously a man of perception and taste returning his brother-in-laws car.

Re: i got the Alfa wave!!
I'm trying to keep the 'Galant Wave' going strong, but I've only seen about 3 and gotten one response

Re: i got the Alfa wave!!
Hmm, the TT wave should be more easily achievable Whereas I would have thought, they seem the type. Whereas my Galant Brigade all appear to be over 400 years old

It could just be living in the south east, but the TT brigade around here struggle to see other vehicles let alone each other!

If I spot you at Swakeley's roundabout on Friday morning, I'll give you a wave!

Re: i got the Alfa wave!!
I could have sworn I saw Gibbo on the M4 this morning at about 07:30 just coming to J13 eastbound, nice blue 166. He was going for a serious yawn, so didn't see my wave.

Re: i got the Alfa wave!!
It has been a long time since I have posted here. God knows I have tried - I have waved, flashed at every Alfa I have come across. Result - no.
3 days a week I work in Clacton-on-Sea and over the last 2 months I have come across another GTV on the A133 coming the other way on at least 10 occasions when driving home. It is a red P1 GTV driven by a blond woman. I have as I have said, waved, flashed etc but have had no response. Grrrr - non reponsive Essex girls.
So then - today I was driving home and my mind was a bit distracted thinking about stuff - a lot going on in my life at the moment - my peripheral picked up some flashing headlights coming towards me - I sort of glanced as it approached then realised it was that GTV driven by that previously ignoring woman in the GTV. Shiess - I think I managed to wave back in time as she went past.
Paul.
