| Notes: | According to Walibi Rhône-Alpes, the Coccinelle des Andes and two other flat rides were purchased from Zygofolis in Nice, France. This information is a bit strange because Zygofolis had a different model Zierer Tivoli coaster. Pictures of the Zygofolis Tivoli coaster in both 1987 and 1988 show a Medium Tivoli Coaster. The Coccinelle des Andes is a Large Tivoli Coaster. Zygofolis did undergo a bankruptcy and change of ownership in it's final years, so it is possible their Tivoli coaster was changed during this time from a medium to large model. The strange situation is still being researched. |
| Etymology: | "Coccinelle des Andes" is French for "Ladybird of the Andes". |
