Is anyone here a member of the HCVS (Historic Commercial Vehicle Society), and if so what are the main advantages in your view? I'm tempted to join, but only if there is some real benefit in doing so! (eg a really good selection of parts in the club magazine etc)??

thanks, Rick

I was a member for a few years, there is an insurance scheme for members, and you get a magazine once a month, with good articles on members vehicles and a classifieds section. There are also local meetings in some areas. But as my vans not in use currently I let the membership lapse, but I do plan on joining again and would recomend joining it if you have a commercial, as there are lots of clubs for cars but not so many for commercials.

And it does what it says on the tin. Laughing

Morning all,

Does anyone else have experience of being in the HCVS, and thoughts on whether membership is worthwhile? I'm looking at it again.

thanks, RJ

We were members a few years back but then they stopped doing runs anywhere near us. We then joined the CTP instead which are based nearer to us.

I used to enjoy reading the magazines but with the advent of the internet we sort of lost interest.
