Welcome to The UK Kit Car Club
The Committee would like to congratulate Heritage Insurance on their 60th Anniversary in 2025The 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 ?

September Lincolnshire Meeting
As we have Donington this weekend and the National Meet at the end of September I don't intend to arrange a formal September meet. Although if we get a lovely day during the month.......
But put a note in your diary for the 5th October when we have been invited to display our cars at the Corby Glen Sheep Fair. The organiser saw us all at the Castle Bytham Fair and asked if we could come to his fair. For those that were at Castle Bytham it is similar but about half the size (smaller village).
I've already warned him if the weather is bad the turnout will be poor. And bearing in mind I have now managed perfect weather for the first 6 Lincolnshire meetings it has to break sometime !!

Donnington Show This Weekend
As most of you will know we have a stand in the main hall again this year, on this stand we will be working on David Edwards Car sorting out as much of the list of jobs as we can. If Any one can help on the car or just spend some time on the stand promoting the club please come along and muck in. This is a fantastic opportunity to promote the fact we are a multi marque club and not just robin hood, For this reason all the new branded club gear will be used on the inside stand to create as bigger impact as possible.
With us having the indoor stand and the outdoor club stand any help with the outdoor stand would be appreciated. the thing that would help are any one who can do a stint on the BBQ at lunch time, help keeping the air flasks topped up with hot water for tea and coffee and generally welcoming any visitors to the stand.
Where possible could members bring their own cups to the show at stoneleigh we used over 200 cups
West Mids To Donnington
I was sounding people out at last nights area meeting regarding meeting up and travelling up to Donnington on Saturday / Sunday.
The response wasn't eactly overwhelming but just in case anyone else is interested, I'm going up on Saturday and can meet at the Malt Shovel Pub, Coventry Road, Nr Stonebridge, Coventry, CV7 7HL
https://maps.google....ingdom&t=m&z=15
around 9-00AM SATURDAY for a 9-15 departure if anyone want's to meet up.
I'm not sure at the moment whether I'm going up on Sunday as well but I think some of the other Midlanders probably will be going, in which case if you want to meet up on Sunday, post up on here and let everyone know.
