When the inventive Tooting family attempts to refurbish a 1960s-style van, they discover they must replace the engine. Little do they know that the vintage Zborowski engine once belonged to Ian Fleming's automotive icon. Searching for all its parts, the car takes the quirky Tootings around the world in an adventure that never quite takes off but offers amusing family dynamics.
