2000s RG Mitchell Coin Operated Van Kiddie Ride - Lizzie-Limo

Filmed at Ocean Boulevard Amusements, Felixstowe on October 23rd 2017. I'm not entirely sure of the story behind this ride. It appears to be an official factory-made modification of RG Mitchell's Hank's Hot Dog Van. The ride features a fibreglass model of one of Parkdean's mascots, Lizzie Lizard, on top of the van and plays the "Lizzie Kiss" tune. I presume this was originally intended to be sited exclusively at the arcades on site at Parkdean Resorts. I have no idea how many of these were made. I know one of these was spotted in a JNC Sales video in 2017, but it's quite possible that it's the same one seen here. As with the Sid-Mobile, the buttons on the panel next to the passenger seat make the same sound effects as on the original Hank's Hot Dog Van. Unfortunately, these only play through the back speaker and cannot be heard on this video. There was VERY loud music playing at the amusement park (as you can hear in the start of the video) and attempts to mix the original video audio with the dub of what was coming out of the front speaker were unsuccessful. Most of my ride friends know the Hank's Hot Dog Van slogans well enough anyway so you'll just have to imagine that you can hear them!
