  • 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 ?

    Rally For Heroes

    Guest 547140hayward
    By Guest 547140hayward,

    Dear RHOCaR members,

     

    I'm taking part in an event called Rally for Heroes over the period 18-25 Aug 12. The event will see 50 cars complete a 3000+ mile route around Europe, starting and finishing at the BBC Top Gear test track, to raise sponsorship money and publicity for Help for Heroes and the Royal British Legion. We are aiming to raise £100k to be split equally between the two charities and, with a week to go, we are just a few thousand pounds away from our target. Full details of the event are at www.rallyforheroes.com

     

    As a serving soldier who returned from my most recent tour in Afghanistan in Apr 12, I know the excellent work that both these charities undertake supporting serving injured soldiers and veterans.

     

    Unfortunately I won't be completing the event in my 2B (cracked engine block!) but my brother in law (Darren) and I will be aiming to finish the event in his BMW 850 which will be a little comfier for 7 days of hard driving!

     

    I would be very grateful if you would consider supporting the event by sponsoring me to take part. Donations can be made at http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/JamieHayward

     

    We are also selling sponsorship space on the car with a £50 donation securing a 7" x 7" sticker on the car with your company's logo. Pse pm me for more details if you are interested - time is short to get stickers made up but is still possible.

     

    In both cases all money donated goes to the charities with all costs for taking part being met personally by entrants.

     

    Thanks in advance for your support,

     

    Jamie Hayward
