To be honest I'll take any coaster big or small I ride them all and Chessington went a long time without a new coaster so will take this oneThat's very very optimistic. Personally, given that this is Chessington, I'd expect to see no more than 3 individual ride cars.

It's a pretty significant investment. But despite investing large sums, Chessington like to spend their money on low capacity attractions.

Is not as old as you think it opened in the year 2000 making it only 25. Twirling Toadstool was much older being 33. I would send Monkey Swinger to Towers just to bolster their ride lineup for a bit
A new one is 0 years old and less likely to fall apart
Drayton Manor got a new one recentlyI'm thinking a traditional wave swinger would probably never be allowed by the insurance killjoys these days. I doubt we'll see one in a Merlin park again.
Theres multiple on the fair circuit that have been traveling for years longer and ones operating longerA new one is 0 years old and less likely to fall apart

You can get one with maglocks now I think. If Chessie get a replacement, I could see it having them.
