The Real Life Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Part 1 - Sports Bizarre

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, the 1968 family musical about a flying car, hardly leaps to mind when you think of sport.

But the film and the book were inspired by one of the most amazing families of early motorsport, the Zborowskis. It's a tale spanning the richest families in the world, James Bond, divorce and some of the most absurd cars ever built.
