Crackpot inventor Caractacus Potts has a fertile imagination and a winning way with kids. He takes his two children, Jeremy and Jennifer, to the beach along with a friend of theirs, Truly Scrumptious, in an old battered car called Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. There, he begins relating a fantastic story involving the children and the car. First, the children's Grandpa is kidnapped by the evil Baron Bomburst. Then, the kids give chase in Chitty. The amazing car turns out to be able to fly like a plane and sail like a hydrofoil. One exciting adventure follows another until, at last, Grandpa Potts is back home safe and sound. Potts then explains to the kids that this has all been just a fairy tale, that dreams don't necessarily come true just because you want them to. With that, they return to the car and Chitty rises slowly into the sky, disappearing over the hills.
