Because his Mini has broken down and will not work anymore, Mr. Bean is forced to sell it to the scrapyard. Unbeknownst to Bean, the scrapyard manager cleans off the oil in the Mini's engine and hijacks it. Bean then purchases a hot air balloon as a replacement, but when he see his Mini back on the road, he realises that the manager stole it, so he takes it back and he is finally able to drive it again.
