The Alfa wave?

[Oilchange]

I had someone wave me but was momentarily surprised by it and completely forgot to wave back...

will try harder next time...

As a GT owner i usually just give the old flash/wave number to other GTs. Usually always get a response, even got a thumb out the window Us Scots are cheery folk though

I'm a 159 driver and always try and wave at other alfas (not 147s though because they don't get it). Out of the newer models GT, Brera and Spider seem to give the most waves back. Get the most back from the older models. Most people just look bewildered because they don't expect a 22 year old to be driving a 159 and know the tradition.

Do any Alfa drivers on here still bother with this

I've never bothered - I just don't get the idea of it, regardless of which car I'm in.

[RicksAlfas]

Ah, you big misery!

[jamieboy]

Just for you, Rick.



Is there a "bah, humbug" smiley?

I've only ever had one Alfa wave and it was off a 147 driver.

Killer, were you at Malton on Sunday? I noticed your name on the list but didn't see your car around. I was hoping to have a look at it!

It was on York outer ring road on Saturday would have waved back but in shock from my first Alfa wave. (was a black 147 that waved)

[robsco]

It wasn't me then!

[Kinky]

Nor me (I'm guessing)

[brimson]

Proper thread ressurection!

I had my first wave this morning, from a guy in a Giulia. I didn't wave back, I didn't know until I googled 'alfa wave' and now I feel guilty.

[wrinx]

It's almost a dying tradition so I'm glad to hear a Giulia driver waved - must be an AROC member

I still wave at any Alfa I see but am usually ignored. But, a couple of weeks ago a GT driver waved at me first...made my day!
