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

New Show For Nwest
Hi Mitch,
Thanks for your help with this!!
Listed are just some of the activities, from East to West:-
Kids Football Tornament
Helicopter Rides (costs involved)
Sportsturf machinery displays
Punch and Judy outside our pub (which is open)
Equine displays
Arb tree climbing
Motorzone, static car clubs, skidcar demos, motorcycle demos, autotesting, vehicle seesaw, vehicle crushing(army tank), atv demos, highways agency, motorway police and loads more
Army, navy and air force displays, climbing wall, paint ball target practice, remote landrover lifting (for the kids, but a proper landrover and proper HIAB crane) etc
Construction plant displays

Peddle tractors for the kids
Free tractor drawn rides around campus

Craft and food displays
Catering throughout campus
Sheep show
Cattle/animal displays
Minibus rides to the farm
I bet I’ve left out soo much!!!
Remember if your members come in their own family car it will cost £10 per car to get in, if they come with a display car then I’ll get them a free display vehicle pass (kids in the boot)!!
I have a very large car park to fill, so the more the merrier!!
Only problem is that there has to be no vehicle movements before 5pm, as we are in the centre of the campus and it will be pedestrainised for the day!
Hope to hear from you shortly!!
Many thanks
Stonliegh From Nwest
