Witnessing the abduction, Potts, Truly, and the children give chase by flying in Chitty Chitty to far-off Vulgaria. But it is Grandpa Potts that the Baron's pirates kidnap by mistake and carry away by airship. The evil Baron Bomburst of Vulgaria, who has learned that Chitty Chitty can sail on the water and soar through the sky, is determined to have Potts make him a duplicate model. While on a seaside picnic with the children and Truly, Lord Scrumptious' beautiful daughter, Potts weaves a story about the magical powers of the car. Using a few odds and ends, plus a great deal of hard work and imagination, Potts converts the old wreck into a shiny new contraption which is affectionately named Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The demonstration at Scrumptious' factory is a catastrophe but the undaunted Potts performs with a troupe of folk dancers at a country fair and earns the money to buy the car.
In an attempt to raise 30 shillings so that the children can purchase a dilapidated racing car from a junk dealer, Potts tries to sell his latest invention, whistling sweets, to Lord Scrumptious, the owner of the local candy factory. Caractacus Potts is a woefully unsuccessful inventor who lives in an Edwardian mill house with his two small children, Jemima and Jeremy, and their eccentric grandfather.
