  • 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 ?

    By apgodden,

    As a new member just wanted to thank everyone involved for organising / running this weekends EOSB.  My eleven year old boy and I had the best time.  The ride out was the highlight with my drifting buddy Andy “hopefully Andy has new underpants on”.......

    Well worth the 6 hour round trip.  Car went well just needed zip ties for front number plate and front wheel arch.

    EOSB tickets

    apgodden
    By apgodden,

    I have purchased my tickets for EOSB and have had no conformation or any tickets through the post.

    Will it be ok just to turn up?


    EOSB Run Out

    Kerry
    By Kerry,

    Hopefully the weather will be kind for the EOSB, and on that assumption I have sorted a run out for the Saturday leaving the show ground at 11.00am.

    The route will take us from the show ground with the first stop at the fuel station to allow cars to take on fuel, then out to Wymondham, returning around Rutland Water.

    I have split the details into two, run out and run back, the destination is the tea rooms at Wymondham Mill ( you can go up the mill)where you can get drinks, snacks and hot food from a limited menu choice.

    Alternatively If anyone would rather stop at a Pub you can call into the  Berkeley arms at Wymondham (01572 787587)  and we can regroup for the run back.

    The run is approximately 1hr each way and a total of 70 miles.

    I have print a few maps, and below are links for google maps and also files for Tom Tom navigation thanks to Derek

    Ruddington meet

    Derek
    By Derek,

    Anyone interested? 

    Ruddington is South of Nottingham on the A60

    Can someone copy and paste this message about Ruddington heritage centre classic vehicle meet 
    Ruddington heritage centre 
    This weekend (bank holiday) we are open Saturday and Sunday and Monday. All Classics will be most welcome from 9am to 5pm. But i will be there from 8am if anyone wants to arrive early. I will be spacing cars 1 metre apart because of the covid. But they normally do that anyway so opening doors don't bang the next car .Free cuppa for anyone bringing a classic.    Cafe will be open for breakfast and lunch etc. Site has been made all covid friendly and the cafe is covid ready and all toilets have been brought up to covid standards.
