Cars so 'rare' that you wave to other drivers...

[Yorkshire_LY]

...who are driving the same car?

Which cars do you think come under this,or do you have one yourself?

I do it in my 370Z - i see about two others on the roads in a year.

[ChocolateFrog]

A few of mine. Honda Insight, Mini and Chimaera spring to mind.

At the opposite end you get some waves in a Transporter. Kind of gave up on that one or you'd be waving every 10 mins.

Definitely other RS drivers, they are few and far between, even mk3 Foci seem to be locked away during the winter months now.

[98elise]

Any Lotus.

[Super Sonic]

When I had my accord r I only ever saw one other on the road. I was waiting in the rh lane approach to a roundabout and it came past on the left, the driver gave me a beep and a wave.
Around 2,000 made, with a tenth of them still on the road, so fairly rare.

I wouldnt have thought this would apply to stuff like Fiesta ST/Focus ST as theyre pretty common...maybe some people dont even know what they are.

When i had a few Renaultsports,i would get a few waves...

[geeks]

A generally uninteresting car but I drive a Vauxhall Frontera, have had this one for 3 years, in that time I have seen one other out in the world and that one was in a car park so I didn't even get to wave!

[GetCarter]

Never passed another Caterham without both giving and receiving a wave.

'cept on track, obs!

[DIW35]

In all the time I owned a Diablo GT I never saw another one on the road.

I think Lotus/Caterhams are the obvious ones hehe - i cant imagine if you had a supercar,youd ever see another one - unless its a car show.

[spikeyhead]

I've not seen another Atom away from a car show, apart from one on a trailer that overtook me using the outside lane whichever motorway I was on

[MonkeyBusiness]

Always waved in my MK1 MX5.

As above, Transporter owners (campers in the main) wave to each other.

Used to get a few waves when I had my Megane 300. I get waves in my Abarth 124, but I’m not really the type to start waving back. A nod of acknowledgment will do.

[andrewpandrew]

Honda e. Very very rarely see another.

[UTH]

Only ever seen one other green Mk2 Focus RS, and we flashed and waved.

Never seen another Corvette, let alone the same as mine, but yes, I would wave! Probably like a lunatic.

Agreed you do, but I’ll wager it’s been a while since you saw a 124 on the road.
