Yes, but as I am usually in the Range Rover I get some unusual looks. The jimny that overtook me on the M40 a few weeks ago whilst I was going quite fast
must have thought I was mad, but I was impressed that he had got it up to that speed!

Same as Kirkynut
Most modified offroaders wave (apart from ones in Fronteras)
driving back from offroading covered in mud on a Sunday afternoon I get surrounded by rubberneckers (same on the motorway when its on a trailer)
Most standard Jimny drivers where I live are usually too busy on their phone or checking their make up

Always!!...why... it'd be rude not to!!
..... Do it in the landy to other landy owners..... used to do it when on the motorbike to other riders (when we had it) and in the scooby to scooby owners!! .....i think its quite nice as a car enthusiast to acknowledge someone else who has pride in their ride...... and Yes i am a lady owner who waves :laugh:

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!

I've waved at other Jimny owners but usually get a blank look.
I sometimes get the nod from other offroaders and get loads of thumbs ups when its muddy! Especially kids in the back of cars, they love it.

I wave at every Jimny I meet. Since most people here buy one knowing why they buy it, 90% wave back. Very nice feeling, almost like the "Trabant brotherhood" of some years ago :lol:
