Synopsis
Jemima and Jeremy Potts watch their father fix up his old, broken down jalopy with excitement, feeling that there is something special about it... sure enough, once the car is repaired, it begins to fly and drive itself around! They name the car Chitty Chitty Bang Bang because of the sounds it makes as it drives them on their wild adventures!
