Just recently I had the pleasure of meeting Pierre Picton, the owner of the original Chitty Chitty Bang Bang GEN 11. I spent several happy hours chatting about the movie which he must have discussed a million times but still his enthusiasm is magnetic.

Following a spectacular showing and display of Chitty at the Eastleigh Carnival, the area was a buzz with magic .The following day Pierre offered Jane a ride and you can quess the answer! After Jane's wonderful trip we helped load Chitty up and said our goodbyes. A truly Fantasmagorical experience.

Pierre and Chitty are a true part of our British Heritage and both bring a smile to everone of every age. Thanks to you both.

If you would like to hire Chitty please check out Pierre's magical website. You can't beat the real thing!
