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 ?

Warks / Worcs / West Mids Monthly Meet 26th January 2022 - POSTPONED
Normally this months meeting would be our post-Christmas meal. However, in view of the current situation, I think having 30+ of us and our other halfs meeting up inside probably isn't a great idea so I think we'll postpone the meal until a later meeting when things have improved a bit.

North East area extra meeting at Darlington. Sheduled for 13th January 2022.
Hi there fellow Hoodies, I hope that you have all recovered from the excesses of last year and are looking forward to this New Year.
Unfortunately we have decided to postpone our first meeting of 2022, due to the uncertainty regarding the new rise in covid cases and
whether the venue will still be availible next week, I know that you will all be heart broken not to see my smiling face but I am afaid that you will just have to wait.
Joking aside I hope that you all stay well and we can resume our meetings in the none too distant future.
Best wishes to one and all and look forward to meeting members both Old and New in the year to come.
Regards Allan
Leicestershire area meeting January 2022

No North East Area Meeting This Month
As the title says we are not holding a meeting this month originally because the venue would have been too busy because of Christmas, but the increase in COVID has overtaken that.
So stay safe everyone and try to have a good Xmas, and watch this space to see what is happening with the meetings in the New Year, hopefully things will improve.

Northwest Group run out update.
Good morning all
Just to update you on our proposed run out on the 4th December to Southport and onwards. The meeting point will be the Car Park off the A49 Preston Road opp Collingwood St Standish nr Wigan. Subject to extreme weather, I would like to start our run at 11 am. We run down to Southport for some chips or what ever floats your food boat. After a show run through the main drag, if you are up for it we will head to Formby and see the cast iron men in the Sea. If anyone wants to enhance the day chip in. It is your club, your voice.
See you all soon. Steve P.
