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 ?

Uxbridge Autoshow 2013
After last years first ever cancellation of the show due to unprecedented rainfall just prior to its commencement, the Uxbridge Autoshow is very much back on again this year.
This on the Sunday 21st July 2013,
http://www.uxbridgeautoshow.com/
Once again it will be £5 a ticket per car (that's for the car and all its occupants) which gets you a place on the RHOCaR club stand for an excellent day out..
Please note that turning up on the day will cost you £10 from this year. So be wise and book early with me
Deadline for this is the Sunday 9th June to give me time to book the stand.
A show of hands needed please

Important Notice
Due to unforeseen circumstances it has been necessary to restore the RHOCaR website to a previous version.
This has led to a small loss of recent data and content but all other aspects should be normal.
We ask that if you have uploaded any content in the last week, you do so again please - this issue will not reoccur again.
Thank you for your on-going support.
