Picture of the Month – October
Gilberns Galore at the Castle Combe Autumn Classic, the historic racing festival held on Saturday 5th October 2019.
This is an annual event held at the Castle Combe Circuit near Chippenham, Wiltshire, and is now established as a regular fixture in the club diary.
The Gilbern Owners Club pitch was once again arranged by Duncan Young from the South Midlands group with 14 cars on display this year.
The weather stayed dry and with excellent support from the members of Avon & Wiltshire, South Midlands, South Wales, South West and West Wales area groups, we ensured that the GOC was very well represented.

About the Club
The Gilbern Owners Club was founded in 1969 by Martin Ingall, our President, when the cars were still in production. In November 1979, with the expansion of the Club’s activities, it was decided to incorporate the Club as a company limited by guarantee.
The Gilbern is a specialist car that attracts people who are interested in the vehicle they drive. Experience with other makes where the manufacturer has ceased production shows the importance of an owners’ club in the maintenance of the marque. Without this interest and support, the general condition of the cars may decline and spares may become harder to find, with a consequent potential drop in the value of the cars.
Our objective is to ensure the continued existence of Gilbern cars by encouraging interest and enthusiasm in the marque. We provide a range of technical services and organise activities and motoring events to bring together Gilbern Owners and enthusiasts.
One of the Club’s major objectives is to ensure that no shortage of parts occurs which would render a member’s car un-roadworthy or unusable. With the help of a wide range of suppliers, we have been very successful and most essential components are available.
A monthly magazine, Welsh Rarebit, together with this website are the main forms of communication with our members.
