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 ?

Normandy, France, September 2013
I'm planning a trip to Normandy, France for the last week in September, Saturday 21st until Saturday 28th.
I've provisionally booked the gite in the link below
Ideally we need 14 people to fill the gite and already have 8 definite and 2 to confirm, so there is space for another 4 to 6 people.
However the occupancy could be expanded if people are interested and are willing to share a room, as a couple of the rooms will sleep 4 and two sleep 3.
Cost of the gite is £1195 for the week, so for 14 that works out at £86 per person, Dover - Calais ferry on the above dates looks to be about £80. Then there is your food, drink and fuel.
We'll be visiting the D Day beaches, Honfleur, Caen, Bayeaux as well as a few blats round the countryside, ask anybody who went to the Somme and they'll say it was like being in big brother living with people you only know through your car, but great fun.
If you're interested post on here or get in touch with me.
