Johnathon Brown, captail of the Brisbane Lions AFL team had an argument with a car at a roundabout on the Gold Coast today. He got a few stitches in his elbow which smashed the windscreen. :eek:
Can anyone work out what model it is?

:link:

Brown's bike was mangled in the collision and the late model Hyundai that hit him required a tow truck.

ps. Sorry I forgot how to do the "Link" thing.

Yeah. I'd agree on ix35 - base model, steel wheels and no fog lights.

The damage to the windscreen would indicate she pulled out into the roundabout in front of him.

She may be in trouble. :whistler:

Just down the road from my parents, ironically near 'the man on the bike' shopping centre.

The tow seems like overkill, driver must have been freaked out.

Would be considered unsafe to drive with the windscreen like that  :whistler:

Looked to me in the pic I saw it was low. 

Would have been safe enough.

Dodgy towie more likely.

There were cracks up the screen making it unroadworthy.
Agreed.






And on a lighter note... :whistler:

My wife told me that Jonathon Brown was hit by a car and required ten stitches.  My reaction was "Holy cr@p!!  What happened to the car?"

She replied, "It was f****d!!"

He is one hard nut from country Victoria (Warnnambool IIRC).
