About the Club

 

THE SUNBEAM TIGER CLUB

 

Following re-branding in 2019 The Sunbeam Tiger Owners Club will now be known simply as The Sunbeam Tiger Club or STC.

The Sunbeam Tiger (Owners) Club was established in 1975 to cater for all enthusiasts of the Rootes Group Sunbeam Tiger ‘The Anglo-American Dream’. Often described as the “Poor Man’s Cobra”.  We prefer

“Cobra performance at a 10th of the price”.

 The annual membership fee is only £45 for U.K. members and £55 for International members

But you don’t have to have a Tiger to be a member!

The Club exists to give owners as much assistance as we can to help them maintain their Tigers and encourage restoration and preservation of the marque. Technical advice and assistance with obtaining cars and spares is provided and we do all we can to promote the enjoyment and survival of these remarkable cars.

The Club is active across all fields of motorsports. The Tiger has proven to be a very competitive circuit race car and ideal for classic rallying. Many members compete in top level British and international events. Our race competition section, Team Tiger, is very active and in 2007 & 2009 Team Tiger won the Individual & Team crowns of the AMOC Intermarque Championship. There is strong interest in supporting ex-works Competition Dept. cars in prestigious events such as the Goodwood Revival, the Le Mans Classic and the Spa Six Hours. The Tiger competes in all of the top historic rally events.

We believe there are about 500 Tigers in the UK which is a high survival rate and indicates the esteem with which they are regarded. The STC has 350 members in the UK and internationally and we work closely with international Sunbeam Tiger and Sunbeam clubs. The Club also is a supporter of the Rootes Archive Centre Trust and this allows us to keep in close contact with all of the Rootes car clubs.

The Club magazine, “Cats Whiskers” has won awards from the classic car media and the Club is very thankful for the admiration and support the Tiger receives from the written media. This website carries up to date information on events, goings on and cars & parts for sale, etc and checkout our Forum, also the Facebook page Sunbeam Tiger UK.

The Sunbeam Tiger Club is a thriving club and we have been known to get 25% of the membership turning out for our National Rally. We run local monthly social meets and include club tours in the UK and Europe which you can see in our events calendar. We also have great range of Tiger regalia.
