Welcome to The UK Kit Car Club

The aim of the club is to help and support members during the build (and inevitable ongoing maintenance and modification) as well as to plan and organise events throughout the year. The Club attends the major kit car shows throughout the year providing a stand with tea and coffee, plus a BBQ with food for members. You'll be warmly received, especially if you bring more food and drink !! We also have stands at many other shows all around the country.

It's not just shows though, our active area secretaries and members regularly arrange run outs and longer trips to such places as Le Mans, Wales and Scotland, plus the annual club camping weekend and the traditional “end of season” get together. Keep an eye on the events section of the forum for news and details of upcoming events.

The Club also produces four magazines a year, exclusively for club members, filled with all manner of things club or motoring related, and members can get their own articles published in it as well if they wish.

The Club is an independent organisation, and although we have our roots as the Robin Hood Owners Club and Register (RHOCaR), we are very much a club for all makes and model of kit car, so anyone can be a "Hoody", as it's all about the state of mind, not the car you drive! Being a member of The UK Kit Car Club has many benefits above those already mentioned. Members benefit from discounted insurance with nearly all of the specialist kit car insurers, and often find that the discount is more than the club membership fee. Membership also gets you full access to the forum, and a variety of other discounts such as with Euro Car Parts. You'll also find other members are willing to go well above and beyond for any other member they see is in need of help !

So whether you own a Robin Hood, a GBS Zero, a Locost, an MK, a Westfield, a Caterham, (or any of the many other types of kit car), everyone can benefit from joining, so what are you waiting for ?

Near Stoneleigh Sat 2Nd May 2015

By richyb66, April 28, 2015

If you're travelling to or are around Stoneleigh on Saturday 2nd May (prior to the shows start on Sunday) and have some free time, you might be interested in this (very) nearby event.

http://www.classicairforce.com/

Essentially is planes and the website gives fuller details but it might be worth popping down for a look. The venue is lierally a stones throw from Stoneleigh (small stone, big arms).

Thanks to local member Steve49er for the heads up.

After our successful outing last weekend at the Stilton Cheese Classic Car Run, and with Stoneleigh this coming weekend, I guess some people might want a break, but if the weather is good, Richard7 and I will be going to the "HorsePower at the Hall" meet at Donnington Hall (LN6 4RU) near LIncoln on Saturday 9th May.

This will be the third time this event has been held, and the first two were very successful, in fact our 'Hood' line up is still the cover photo on their Facebook page (https://www.facebook...epoweratthehall). It runs from 09:00 to 12:00 and we can then go to a pub afterwards for lunch.

If anyone else wants to join us we meet up at 09:00 at the side of the BP garage (see link) at the Doddington Road roundabout on the A46.

I'll do a final update here when we see what the weather is like.

And if the weather is good for any of the remaining weekends in May I will suggest something in the South of Lincolnshire (maybe a picnic at Rutland Water?).

See you all next weekend.

As last year tea and coffee will be available on the club stand, the BBQ crew will be flipping burgers at lunch Time and hog roast on Sunday night for members and family, tickets available during the day on production of a 2015 membership card to a committee member on the club stand. Look forward to seeing you all there and don't forget the AGM on Sunday.
