      Let's face it he will be chuffed with the extra attention to his channel - cue a follow up video from Ben capilitising on it. I find it hard to believe he wouldn't have known about the wheel and he definitely would have known about the paddle - sounds like he's even had a go at fixing it before. He also casually forgot to mention about the deer impact until he was asked about it. I get it with a normal sale but if you're going to expose yourself by selling it to Calvin then it's best to be super honest, and he wasn't. The whole thing just stinks.
