The Sub centre was formed during the winter of 1978 and The Cricket Club at Northop Hall village was chosen as our meeting place. We have enjoyed the hospitality of the cricket club for 33years and appreciate their support. Our first Welsh Ramble took place in 1979 and the first Welsh Weekend in September 1979. We are proud to tell you that this event has been fully booked every year since. Our sub centre thrived through the eighties with 50 members attending almost every club meeting and we were able to be involved with assisting and supporting many National events. Welsh Weekend grew to be a major event with over sixty cars driving in convoy. However the recession of the nineties hit the classic car scene and we lost a few of our members, some of our young people married and moved out of North Wales further reducing the membership. However several of the original members have returned and we have seen an increase of new members during the last year so have an enthusiastic and active sub centre group. We are particulary proud of our hill climb champions, John Richards, big Healey, John Newton Sprite. Many of our original members continue to attend our monthly meetings and between us have a vast experience of Austin Healey's Large or small so are able to offer help and advice to less experienced owners.

The North Wales Red Dragons are affiliated to the TR Drivers Club (TRDC), an international classic car club that was formed in 1981 to support the later TR series of cars (a time when none of the established Triumph owners clubs accepted or in fact had any interest in the TR7 model). Since ’81 the TR Drivers club has grown from strength to strength and now has dedicated area groups and members all over the world, who not only own TR7’s but also sports cars from the whole TR range. Our area was established around 1990 by Colin Jones from Mold. The first meeting of the group was on the 27th November 1990 at the Clwyd Lodge Hotel, Flint Mountain. Some 23 years on it is still very well supported and has an active group of enthusiasts. We enjoy everything that comes with being a member of a classic car club and owning a treasured classic car, road runs, race events, both national and international, classic car shows, camping and weekends away to name just a few. If you would like to join us you can either come along to one of our monthly meetings on the first Friday of the month (at the Plough Inn, Aston Road, Queensferry, CH5 1TJ - 8.30pm) or use the TRDC ‘join us’ link from our website. We all very much look forward to meeting you and seeing your classic car!.

The South Wales Branch of the Morris Minor Owners Club was established in 1982, and was one of the first affiliated branches of the National Club. As the name suggests it is a car club for people who own or are interested in Morris Minors and that live in or near to the South Wales region. We meet at the Pontyclun Institute Athletic Club once a month to talk about our cars any problems we may be having with them, any car shows that are coming to plan monthly club drives and generally have a good time. Our aim is to meet as often as we can with our cars and to drive them. We try to have a couple of cars if not more, present at the majority of shows that take place in and around the South Wales area, and try to organise as many club runs as we can. At the end of the day they are iconic classic cars that not only we as members enjoy but the general public enjoying seeing too. We’d rather have them out and about and not just being garage ornaments. So if you’ve just moved to the area or you’re passing through, maybe you’ve been here all your life and only just discovered us get in touch. It would be great to see you at our next meeting!.

The VMCC South Wales Section caters for all motorcycles with a minimum age of 25 years, regardless of make or country of origin. The section is one of 84 sections within the VMCC and was initially formed in April 1961 in the car park of the Andoversford Hotel by three members who need to be a section in order to receive the Team Award that they had just won in the Cotswolds Road Trial. There was an instant election amongst the three, of Chairman, Secretary and Treasurer - and the trophy was duly handed over. The section meets on the dates listed on the meeting dates page in the Lounge. The dates are usually fortnightly on a Monday and the meetings are held in the Llanharry Workingmens Club, Llanharry at 8pm. To find the club there is a multimap on their website. If you're not a VMCC member but have an interest in motorcycles, then you are most welcome to come along and meet us. Our meeting attendances usually average around 60 - depending on the weather, bank holidays or if the meeting is an AGM.

The club was startedby a small group of avid enthusiasts who felt there was a need for a local motorcycle group, all of whom take part in many Welsh and UK Classic & Modern motorcycle events.

The club’s number one aim is to promote the enjoyment of Japanese motorcycles. You don’t even need to own a bike to be a member! How open-minded is that? All we ask is that members share the club’s passion for some of the most amazing mass produced bikes ever to come out of a factory. It really isn’t possible to stereotype a VJMC member; some own big bikes, others are moped mad. Some are passionate about one particular marque, others have wide ranging eclectic tastes. It takes all sorts to make a club and that is what the VJMC is all about; enjoying the bikes for what they are. We aim to support our members with a range of services and are looking to expand on this side of membership in the next few years.
