  • 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 ?

    Stilton Run 22Nd April 2018

    Derek
    By Derek,

    I have spoken to the Bell Inn at Stilton (http://www.thebellstilton.co.uk/ )and they are prepared to cater for us again this year.

     

    I'm afraid I cannot organise the payments as I did last year, however, I have provisionally booked for 25 - 30 in the same area as last year.

     

    If you call 01733 241066 to reserve a place or a table please mention my name, Derek Overfield, and you are with the RHOCaR group.

     

    A deposit of £5 per person will be payable when you book.

     

     

     

    I will post the April menu once it is released and if you pre order with me I will pass it onto the Stilton, as we did last year.

     

    The only difference between last year and this is that you will need to book and pay a deposit yourself.

     

    Please let me know you have booked and how many you have paid a deposit for, that way I can organise the pre order.

     

    The Stilton Run entry form is You don't have to enter but the entry fee goes to the Air Ambulance charity.

    Rhocar Events Facebook Group.

    By keith kelly,

    Hi all,

     

    Some of you will already have been invited to join the RHOCAR events Facebook group.

     

    The group is a closed group and only open to RHOCAR fully paid 2018 members. Membership will be checked by asking for your forum name before accepted. If you like to join the group please see the link below.

     

    https://m.facebook.com/groups/514980222217443

     

    This group has been set up to to allow us to invite you to events of interest / Send you notifications and reminders and to make it easier to communicate and organise runs etc. Events will also be posted on the forum but from experience these can easily be missed as they move down the list of posts.

     

    Events and posts can only be created by admin at this time however it has been setup to allow you to reply to a post/ event and add comments about the event. This is to keep the chat and knowledge sharing side of the club with the forum.

     

    If you have any events runs out etc you would like to share / promote to other hoodies please email me at events@rhocar.org and I will get them posted.

     

    Hope this becomes a useful group for all and hope to see you at some of the events.

     

    Regards

     

    Keith kelly

     

    Events secretary
