  • Welcome to The UK Kit Car Club

    Heritage logo

    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 Admin,

    In case you have not noticed I have done a major update of the Foum software from 1.3 to the latest 2.1.6. I did manage to screw up, so I've lost some of the attachments :( and I need to check the smileys and stuff. So please let me know in chit chat what is wrong!


    Leics Area Meeting Reminder

    Andy Spencer
    By Andy Spencer,

    Just a reminder of the Leicestershire area meeting this Wednesday at the Waterside Inn, Mountsorrel, Leics, 7.30pm onwards.

    Unfortunately (for the second month running...sorry) I won't be there, my new job is taking me all over the country and I'm away on the South Coast Weds night.

    We'll have to get some weekend runs sorted as I tend to be around then.

    The place to be in yer hood this Sunday June 11th is with The Thames Valley Group doing a run over the Chiltern Hills, taking in the famous Aston Hill, along a challenging route with three notably famous steep hill climbs to challenge you and the car. Thanks to our man Steve from Chinnor who has planned every detail as you would expect any self-respecting aircraft engineer to do !!

     

     

    This is open to all, in any car so bring along the tintop with granny, the boss in his Ferrari, anyone with an interesting classic MG or whatever, plus any kit fans you know.
