Welcome to The UK Kit Car Club

The Committee would like to congratulate Heritage Insurance on their 60th Anniversary in 2025

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 ?

Hi everyone

Fernleys Ice cream is holding a charity event on Saturday 13th September from 10am. I've been asked to see if anyone would like to come and display their cars. It is in aid of prickleback urchin hedgehog rescue. Cars will need to be there by 9.45

With it being at the cafe, food and drink is available as well as mini golf and indoor and outdoor children's play areas. There are 17 different flavours of ice cream to choose from.

There will also be a few market stalls and a tombola.

Let me know if anyone is interested as will need numbers.

East England meets for August

By alanrichey, Thursday at 04:13 PM

It's been a quiet August so far with people being on holidays, but remember we still have the Dirty Duck (Sat 23rd) and Stamford Car Show (24th). But the Group are proposing a picnic meet next Wednesday lunchtime. (20th).

Location will be decided once we know who is coming so we can try and ensure everyone gets about a 1 hour drive,

Please let me know if you would like to join us.

MOT exempt?

By dandan62, August 4

Hi. My S7 is now MOT exempt as I'm assuming it was built 30 years ago now. I thought it would be easy to do with the form at a post office but I also need a tax renewal form. I won't get that till March 26 when I can claim full historic status. Just trying to save my £55 for another MOT. Any ideas ?
