Welcome

 

 
Hello from the Sunbeam Alpine Owner's Club. To those of you who have accessed this page for the first time, may we extend a warm welcome. This site is about the club and not specifically about the Sunbeam Alpine car.


The committee are keen to promote a friendly atmosphere and although each and every member believes that the Sunbeam Alpine is a special sports car, we also wish to ensure that, through this club, all members can find fulfilment from meeting enthusiasts with similar interests and experiences that they have gained from owning our kind of car.


The Club was formed in 1977  and includes many members from all parts of the world. The club has, over the years, built up a considerable list of committee posts, which are held by elected volunteers from the membership.

Why not come to one of the local meeting?



The club is divided into areas and each area has its own Area Representative and hopefully monthly meetings, usually in a local hostelry for a drink and an exchange of experiences.

 


An Annual National Meeting  is also held and each area takes it in turn to organise the event, usually on a weekend in July/ August, with members starting to arrive on Friday afternoon/evening and departing sometime on Sunday afternoon/evening or Monday morning. A good chance to meet other Alpiners from different parts of the UK and welcome our foreign visitors.


Our magazine is called the Alpine Horn  with guide publishing dates of February, April, June, August, October and December. Articles for the Horn should be sent to the editor by the 20th of the previous month.
In addition, a Register of Members is published and is supplied to all members.
