When I have been crusing about in my CC and see other CC's, I hold back from waving or even smiling now as the moodiness coming from them is unbelievable!
Take this weekend I saw 3 CC's (anyone from here?)
Smiled at the first 2 and got the evilest look back and the 3rd one I flashed my lights and got another look af if they were saying "what are you doing that for?"
Lighten up and atleast smile! :smile:

I smile, wave and flash (my headlights - to cold for anything else :grin: )at all CC's.

If they dont respond in a positive way then its their loss. They are missing out on the true meaning of CC's - a fun loving nature.

Just keep waving is what I say. The more of us who wave the more will start to wave. The Alfa owners years ago had this problem to start with - SO STICK WITH IT AND WAVE AND FLASH

Like you lot I also Smile or wave or whatever and haven't had a positive response yet. It seems to be rather like turning up to a ball in the same dress as someone else -handbags at dawn etc! It doesn't bother me in the least at least it shows that someone out there has got good taste like me!

There are a couple of CCs I see most days, my arm would drop off if I waved at them each time I saw them! I do smile / wave at CCs I don't know though. Surely Gloucester and Cheltenham must be a CC hot spot, loads of them around here. Anyone else from round here on the site though?

Julia,

Don't let the b$%&*%ds get you down. I have been blanked many a time but I will still wave, hoot or flash the lights everytime i see a CC.
I even had to remind myself not to do it when I am driving my gf's car! :smile:

Just cause another CC driver doesn't want to wave and smile doesn't mean they are unhappy it means they just can't be a***d!!

It didn't say in my user mannual that i had to wave and flash at every cc owner

Aw Col I thought us northerners were supposed to be a friendly bunch! Surely if you do get a wave from a fellow owner it is only good manners to acknowledge them even if one can't be a***d.

Col - sounds like you have the standard 206 manual??

I'm yet to get any acknowledgement from other CC drivers in the North Manchester area - although I have had a few envious ones from 206GTi owners!!!!

Sorry guys didn't mean to sound like a grumpy git. i suppose i will flash and smile when its dead sunny and we both have our hoods down. But i suppose we'll all be dead cheesy when the weather picks up

Yeah it's true, us northern gits are very friendly

I will wave and smile but I have only ever seen other CC's going south on the A19 on a morning and north on a night. (is there a lot of CC's in the Toon?!)I don't think they would see me waving my hand.

Perhaps I should try waving the roof!! :lol:

We wave and flash our lights too Julia but there don't seem to be too many CC's in Norfolk to wave to! When we have seen one and waved we've nearly always had a response so keep trying down your way and if you're ever up in Norfolk and see a red CC wave cause chances are it'll be us!!!

Sara - we live near Bury and spotted 3 other CCs around the area at the weekend. Mine is black with SP grill and wheelarches (the pics are under owner 180 on Lyndon's main site).
