Anybody else get any flashes & waves from fellow smartys
Re: Anybody else get any flashes & waves from fellow smartys
Mark Bowie - Not me, I have a black Roadster. I do wave anyway but sometimes it feels like shouting "Hi!" at a mate across the road when going for a walk, and no one answers. You feel a bit of a plonker as everyone thinks you are the village idiot...even if you are.
Most of the Smarts around Tun Wells are driven by people who are not enthusiasts & wonder what the hell you are doing waving at them, so I don't tend to when I see one, which is not too often. Shame, always somewhat heart warming!
I live in tonbridge and work in t/wells and get a few waves i got a wave and a flash of headlights from a 63 plate white & back 451 last week on my way home from work last tuesday was that you?

I think Ive only had this happen once in the entire time Ive had the 450, ok so smarts are rarer than snail teeth around these parts, but even in the UK when I was driving it there no one did. I get more waves and flashes in the Mx5.
i mean ANY forfour. she been trying with 450 1 owner for the past 5 years so why not keep at it with forfour owner, one will wave at some point. hell, i try and wave when i can.
What do you reckon ? About 3 hours drive from Rugby to Leeds ? So if you agree the route, both leave home at about 12, and wave at all smarts in both directions, you'll be home by 6 and should have collected at least 2 waves each .
Peace in the Midlands ...
They'll both blink at the moment of passing and miss each other!

so please enlighten.
just try with 1 forfour and then go from there. i do hope you successfully converting the MK6 driver, but please try and make the effort to wave at forfour owners and perceiver.
so what your saying is a fortwo who hasnt waved at you for 5 years is 'easier' to convert over a forfour which hasnt waved. or is it a case of there have been more versions of the fortwo than the forfour or roadster?
