  • 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 ?

    Outage

    theduck
    By theduck,

    We experienced an outage today (05/11/2018) the initial cause of which appears to have been an issue with out host provider, as their own sites were down. Once the host issue was resolved this had caused a corruption of the database, which has been repaired and as such normal service should be resumed.

     

    If you do run into any ongoing issues please do message me.

    Area Secretary Changes

    richyb66
    By richyb66,

    We're pleased to announce the following changes to the Area Secretary roles.

    Current Leicestershire Secretary Andy Cartwright (Andi) is relocating to Stafford and so will be standing down from his current role and has agreed to take up the vacant position in Staffordshire. No doubt Andy will have plans for the area and as we have a number of members locally, hopefully they will give him their support in anything he organises.

    Kerry Allen (Kerry)has kindly agreed to take over the Leicestershire role from Andy.

    They both have a wealth of experience in the club and Im sure everyone wishes them well in their new roles.

    Were always looking for people to fill vacant Area Secretary positions and its a position that isnt as time consuming or difficult as people think and is something you can really put your own stamp on. As a minimum youll probably need to post up a monthly meet but anything over and above that is pretty much up to you. Local area events can apply for club funding so if you want to organise a gathering that involves some expenditure, the club can help with this.

    As a small reward for you efforts, you do receive free club membership so if anyone would like to consider a position and wants more information, please contact me.
