Saw a black (I think) E30 on Broad Oak Road in Canterbury today and exchanged a smile and a wave as I drove past in my green touring.

E30 appreciation all round.

Not me but I often get the nod and wave from other E30s and classic BMWs in Bristol. Not actually seen any zoners that I've met at meets when out and about though.

It's always nice to no/smile and wave to other owners. :)

I see a few E30s in and around the Canterbury area, though I didn't spot any black ones today.

Beetle owners have waved at each other for years but have never seen land rover owners waving.

I always thought mini owners liked a wave aswell. I must say though, i do give e30 owners a flash of the lights and a little nod when i see any.

Morris Minor owners tend to wave at one another too. :)

I wonder if the person I saw was a zoner. I've edited the title to add the City.

Seeing less and less E30s these days.

Maurice, do you still have an E30?

I say a Black one on the road to Sandwich on Saturday - haven't seen it before. The only ones I see on a regular basis now are a G plate grey/blue 2 door around Canterbury and a Jade Green chromie more door at Westwood Cross

I quite often see a lowered red cabbie floating about.
