Driving the TVR it is accepted that you acknowledge the presence of other TVR drivers. Froma small nod of the head to a wave out the window nearly all drivers do something.
What is the accepted practise in Aston Martins? I dont hitnk a single other AM driver has waved, smiled or even acknowledged me when we pass.

I'd agree with you on that, Simond001. Used to get more waves etc. in the 350z than I've done in either Astons I've had, even worse when one passes you and refuses to look across, they seem to give the impression that they resent you being there, like you're upstaging them or something. A shame if true, hope I'm wrong...
If you're going through either herts or north london give me a wave

Snap!I still wave to TVRs - and they all back!
I am taking delivery of my first Aston (V12 V) on Friday, and I will resolutely wave at ALL TVR and Aston owners..whatever car I'm driving, whilst wearing a large grin on my face!!!

I saw two Am's today about 5pm on the A22 going southbound. they had one car between them so possibly travelling together.
A quick flash of the lights and a hand lifted from the wheel.
Both drivers resolutely stared ahead as if I wasnt there. Just think it is so wierd as surely we have all chosen to go AM against all the best German efforts!
So, AM drivers of the Uk, Chill, Enjoy, and say Hi. It wont devalue your day
If I can I always flash lights, wave and toot the air-horns at any Aston (whilst overtaking ). It's usually a V8/DB9 these days. The response rate is about 50%. Occasionally I fail to respond to acknowledgement from another Aston due to whatever. I assume that is the same reason I don't get 100% replies.
