  • 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 ?

    Statement

    Guest RHSC
    By Guest RHSC,

    We have been looking at the various comments on our lightweight and the issue of sva

    Our lightweight demonstrater was succesfully sva tested prior to official launch of the car,with a car properly approved we started selling the kit.We have seen a number of Lightweights built and registered all over the world

    Our car has been recently striped down for examination and NO PROBLEMS WERE ENCOUNTERED this car has been used on track days,on the road all year and if you remember used by the press (including a trip to France)

     

    We have just re-tested our own car again (this week) succesfully!

     

    We all know the SVA centres vary enourmously from region to region some things they pass in one station sometimes same fail in others

    It apperars the kit car industry suffers from these inconsistancies and interpritations through no fault of their own
