Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Six Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang cars were created for the film, only one of which was fully functional. At a 1973 auction in Florida, one of them sold for $37,000, equal to $199,617 today.[8] The original "hero" car, in a condition described as fully functional and road-going, was offered at auction on 15 May 2011 by a California-based auction house.[9] The car sold for $805,000, less than the $1â€“2 million it was expected to reach.[10] It was purchased by New Zealand film director Sir Peter Jackson.[11]
