Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Flies Again!

Mr. Tooting has just been fired from his job, much to the dismay of Mrs. Tooting, moody daughter Lucy, whizz-kid Jem, and little Harry. Instead of seeking a new job, he decides to fix things around the house. But when his "fixes" turn into disasters, his family decides to find something better for him to do. One day, Mrs. Tooting comes home with an old broken camper-van. She says that Mr. Tooting is just the person to get it working, which he agrees to. Over the next few weeks, he and Jem work together to fix the van and make it run again. When they go to a local junkyard to find new spark plugs, Mr. Tooting notices something in a tree. What he finds is a very old engine, which he promptly brings down by starting it and revving the engine until it falls. He decides (much to the annoyance of Jem) to put the engine in their van, thinking that it must be special given the name "Zborowski" written on it. Jem also finds a small airplane mascot, which he decides to keep. Mr. Tooting and Jem return home and collect the family, ready to go on a test drive of the new car. But soon the car begins to act strangely. It disobeys traffic signs, the speed limit, and seems to enjoy racing other cars. The van soon takes them off the freeway and onto an old path. They then find themselves at a Camper-van club, where they forget to put the car in park. The van rides down the hill and over a cliff with Little Harry inside. But the car comes back, having sprouted a set of wings. After making sure everything's alright, the family gets back in the van and flies away. The next day, the family finds itself parked atop the Eiffel Tower in Paris. They decide to explore the city, before returning that night to get the car down. Mr. Tooting gets a call from someone called Tiny Jack who wants to buy the van. When Mr. Tooting refuses, the man becomes angry and demands the car. Mr. Tooting ends the call and tries to get the van to start. While he does, Jem notices two old lamps attached to a nearby billboard. When he inspects them, he finds the word "Zborowski" written on them, just like the engine. He and Mr. Tooting attach them to the car's grill, after which it starts up. As the family flies away, they notice the car makes a different sound, and decide to give it a name: Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The following evening, Chitty runs out of gas and crashes near the Pyramids of Egypt. There, they meet a woman called "Nanny" who has found some old wheels in the sand. She invites the Tootings to stay with her for the evening, which they accept. Nanny takes them to a large estate, where they relax and enjoy themselves. Mr. and Mrs. Tooting decide to go out for the night, leaving the children with her. The next morning, the Tootings wake up to find that the car has been replaced by a small, wooden toy car. Nanny tells them that the car has been stolen by a man named Mr. T. The Tootings set off to find it, and soon they find themselves in a small village. There, they meet a man named Mr. T, who is the man who stole the car. He tells them that he is a magician and that he wants to use the car for his magic show. The Tootings agree to let him use the car, but only if he promises to return it to them. Mr. T agrees, and the Tootings leave him with the car. The next day, the Tootings find themselves in a large palace, where the king of the land. The king is a kind man who loves magic and wants to use the car for his own show. He agrees to let the Tootings keep the car, but only if they promise to use it for good. The Tootings agree, and the king gives them the car. The Tootings return home and live happily ever after with their magical car, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
