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 ?

Midlands Area run out - Sunday 30th December
As the weather is mild at the moment, I thought about having a run out this Sunday. Mostly it's a chance to catch up and have a chat so don't feel obliged to come in a kit - tin tops are fine.
Thinking of meeting at the Malt Shovel (Toby Carvery Stonebridge Coventry) for a leisurely breakfast from 10AM onwards and then head off around 11AM. I'm thinking we could head up to Carsington Water near Ashbourne for a cuppa and then head back via the National Memorial Arboretum at Alrewas.
Derby and Notts area.
Hi all,
Hope everybody had a good Christmas.
The next meeting for the Derby and Notts area will be on Sunday 6 January 2019 at 6.30 pm. Meet at the Queens Head, Main Road, Watnall, NG16 1HT.
Be good to see everybody.
Regards
John. Area Sec Mobile:- 07739 984613
North East Area Meeting Wed 26th Dec. ., From 7-30Pm
Hi Not sure if anyone will turn up for the meeting at the Church Mouse, Waldridge Chester le Street DH23RJ on Boxing day so I am going to use the pub as a stopping off point, as it is quite a good forecast so I am going to have a bit of a run-out. I will be there at about 7-30 and i will stay for a hour to see if anyone turns up. If you can't make it all the best to you all and we will meet up at the Jan. meeting. Alan

Goodbye Leicestershire
It is with great regret that I have to leave my brothers and sisters in the leics and surrounding areas. I have had a fantastic time and met some truly weird, wonderful, educated, amazing, talented and friendliest folk one could ever wish to meet.
Thank you all for turning up to the Leicester kitmas meal tonight and thanks for the gifts.
I have watched our local club grow from strength to strength over the years which is in contrast to the national declining trend in the kit world, and I hope it continues to do so.
We have a strong and capable new rep called Kerry (Yaaaaay) at the helm and he will "rock da club" for future events.
I will still turn up for runs and events as I'm only moving to staffs.
If anyone is thinking of buying or building a kit in the leics area, then join the club. These guys will be round to help or offer advice at the drop of a hat.
Cheers all
