  • Welcome to The UK Kit Car Club

    The Committee would like to congratulate Heritage Insurance on their 60th Anniversary in 2025

    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 ?

    By Guest piddy,

    Hello all.

     

    Just a quick note about next weekend’s events.

     

    Firstly on Saturday 7th we have been invited to a summer fete in the village of Holme Hale.

     

    The village lies 1.5 miles south of Necton and 5.5 miles by road east from Swaffham.

     

    I’m planning on going for a couple of hours if the weather is favourable.

     

    Is anyone else interested in attending?

     

    If yes what time would suit you to attend? I thought it might be nice if a few of us turned up together, I was thinking about 12 or 1.

     

     

     

    Secondly On Sunday 8th is our monthly meeting at the park hotel in Diss from 11am.

     

    All welcome, In Tin top or kit, rain or shine.

     

    Contact me if you require more information or direction.

     

    Following the meeting there is a car show being held at Stonham barns. We have been told that it is ok for us to turn up when we like in the afternoon. Again I will be attending if the weather is favourable.

     

     

     

    Martin.

    By Mitch,

    HI all,

     

     

     

    right after such a good run around the peaks last week, steve has suggested a weekend of either camping Youth Hostle, or b and b and two days thrashing around the peaks, so i need numbers and if you fancy B and B the hostle or camping, dates are 3- 5th of september, so nr Carsington (ashbourne)

     

    rough prices are 26 quid for the youth hostle B and B

     

    pub B and B around £55

     

    camping is £11

     

     

     

    so please reply if interested and which option you would rather have,
