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 ?

End Of Season Bingo

By Andi, July 26, 2017

Hi all,

Last years end of season bash hosted bingo which proved to be lots of fun and very popular. All proceeds will go to RHOCAR`s nominated charity.

This is where we need your input.... All prizes are to be donated by club members and any business that wish to sponsor it.

Last year for example prizes included whisky, rum, wine, jewelry, car parts, a marrow?? a full English breakfast from the catering van (not Caterham), framed car photo`s and the star prize was a new jet washer.

Tickets will be on sale throughout Saturday at £1 for a strip of 3 and unless there is a drastic change Bingo should be called on Saturday evening in the main hall.

So have a rummage around to see what you can spare and dig deep.

Derek and Mo have already started the ball rolling with a donation at Hoodstock so many thanks for that.

It`s all good fun and you may even win something you really need.

Maybe.... just maybe
