A warm welcome to the South of Scotland Car Club which was founded in 1951. Visit this site regularly, particularly the ‘FULL CHAT‘ page, to furnish yourselves with the club’s latest news, which is updated daily. Our membership continues to grow as more enthusiasts join up to be part of a club that’s going places and doing lots for its members. Our picture by Bob Little shows two of our many members, David Bogie and Kevin Rae, winning the 2011 Jim Clark International Rally. Having been crowned the 2009, 2010 and 2011 Scottish Champions and also the 2011 British Rally Champions, they are now the 2012 Scottish Rally Champions !!!!!!!! This is indeed a Historic achievement, as they are the first to be Four Times Scottish Rally Champions.
