Now here is a mystery. Ian Fleming wrote 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang' in the early 1960s. It was published in 1964. The film of the book came out in 1968. I, like most people, assumed that Fleming made up the name. This annual was published in 1958. But page 1 of the annual depicts a number of racing cars famous for racing on Englands Brooklands race track, including one named 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang' [300 HorsePower and dated to 1923.] As the man with the pointy ears would say, 'fascinating!'
