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 ?

Staffordshire Area Meet Monday 6th May 2019
This will be at the George and Dragon Meaford Rd, Meaford, Stone ST15 0PX starting at 19.30
Obviously this is on the same day as Stoneleigh ends but I wanted to keep the date the same as usual. Besides I will need weaning off the Stoneleigh weekend madness bit by bit.
There will be a classic car event on at the same time so lots to look at.
I`ll be there in the kit. Unless it`s a wash out
All welcome, kits or not.
Hope to see you there.

Stoneleigh 2019 News and Discounts!
Stoneleigh is nearly here, so some quick details for everyone.
This year our normal stand is no longer available due to the changes happening for HS2. As such we will be located on plot 73 which is circled on the below map. We will have our normal gazebo up and will have our new look flags - they match the new logo - so we should be easy to find!
As usual, the AGM will be in the Warwick complex - Which is right next to the new stand, so no long walk to get there! - at 4.30pm on the Sunday and we encourage all members to attend.
We will also have some club merchandise available:
New especially for stoneleigh we have mugs £5 each, but when they are gone, they are gone, so be sure to pick one up while stocks last!
We will also have a number of embroidered caps at a show discounted price of £10 each
We will also be offering special discounted membership at the show at the BARGAIN price of £15 for a full 12 months membership with all the normal perks!
and if that wasnt enough, we will also be offering members discount on our Curborough Track day on 30th May at just £40! For those of you familiar with the Car Throttle website and youtube channel, this is the track they use for all of their project car tests.
All of these prices are cash only at the show, just speak to a committee member during the weekend.

Derby and Notts area
Hi Everybody,
Just to let everybody know there will NOT be a meeting for the Derby and Nottingham area in May, it would be the same weekend as Stoneleigh so with this and members having other commitments over the bank holiday weekend the next meeting will be on June 2.
I will remind everybody nearer the time.
Best regards
John. Area sec
