Acknowledgement wave??

Post by Joe_caddy »

I know a lot of certain car owners acknowledge one another with a wave or gesture (e.g classic minis etc) just wondering if many caddy owners acknowledge each other as they are travelling round??

I was thinking this but was thinking go with a subtle 2k sticker on wing mirror so theres less funny looks when acknowledged :D

There's just too many on the roads, it's worse than nodding at every other biker on a sunny Sunday.

I find a lot of modified VW owners in general give a nod or some sort of acknowledgment, usually transporter drivers around here if I'm honest but there's a few caddy lads who let on.

Same as here in Suffolk
Few waves here and there from the Transporter brigade, and as you say also the odd Caddy, but when out in my 1965, everybody seems to smile or wave :D :D

Did and got a wave as I was heading out of Barlow on my way to Hope in Derbyshire. Other Caddy was an modded ex-BG, looked really nice.

Haha, you saw a modified Caddy in South Africa? All I see is panel vans with sign-writing on the side (and 1 or 2 soccer moms in Life/Cross versions). Oops, almost forgot the odd rusty/crusty pre-facelift white panel van surfer versions. :P

Can't see much from your pic, but it doesn't look rusty or crusty! Guessing Tableview side if you're kite surfing. I'm City Bowl. You've changed the wheels and lowered it, that makes your van already more modded than 95% of the ones on the road! ;)
