If you have enough money you can buy anything.

If you are just a "regular" person looking for a used one or something though, you will have to be an EXTREMELY (!!!!) lucky person to come accross a wheel for sale (and then have to actually fight other people to buy it...).

Coaster wheels arn't exactly cheap and they are quite heavy. Some parks hold charity auctions where they sell stuff like that, but then againt there are some crazy people who want all sorts of weird stuff.

It seems doubtful to me that CK actually has the car. Maybe he could show us a pic and say how much is costs.

WOW i wouldnt mind having a rita wheel. Although i wouldnt pay much for it as its not gonna do anything and i cant exactly say to my friends "look, i have a wheel off that launch coaster at alton towers you liked" they would look at me like i was nuts. [:p] But i would still pay like a tenner for it. [:p]

i have 2 coaster wheels mounted on a plack. one from the grand national and one from the pepsi max.

i brought both of them at a charity auction in the casino at blackpool pleaure beach the both of them cost me just under ?????????850.

?????????130 for the pepsi max wheel
?????????730 for the grand national wheel

before any of you ask i will NOT EVER sell them. ever, ever, ever, ever!!!!

i also brought the old lights from 'the roller coaster' and i also have three of the lights from the theming of 'klondike: gold mine' at drayton manor. and soon to be getting hopefully a part of the old theming from the haunting at drayton manor.
i can get old stuff from there because i know, very well one of the park reps, he can get lot o cool stuff.

^So then might you explain why you said that if you didn't have it?
