About the Ssangyong & KGM Owners Club
This club was set up in May 2003, by our founder Magna. He was having difficulties locating parts and information for his beloved Ssangyong Musso. Quite rightly he thought that if he was having these difficulties then other people were probably having the same problems, and that an Internet accessible resource to share information and experiences with these vehicles would be a great asset.
Magna was correct, he was not the only one, the club has now grown to nearly 4000 members worldwide at the time of writing this article, and has become an Internationally renowned central repository of technical information and knowledge for Ssangyong vehicles.
As the club has grown the roles within it have become more clearly defined, with the appointment of a Head administrator and back up from a team of Moderators. All of these posts are filled by unpaid volunteers, continuing to promote and encourage growth of the club
The Aims and Objectives of the Ssangyong & KGM Owners club, are to promote and facilitate, the sharing of information relating to Ssangyong’s. This can be in the form of technical information, tips, experiences, and locating spares. In a friendly, social environment. The club is based in the UK, but accepts membership worldwide.
Membership is free, and no charge will be made for any information or advice given by any party. It is our policy to avoid commercial advertising wherever possible, but we may accept selected advertising ONLY from tried and trusted sources who we sincerely believe will provide a recommendable service to the membership at large.
Social gatherings will be promoted, to encourage a friendly and personal atmosphere within the club.
It is our intention to continue growing and remain the worldwide number one resource for information relating to the Ssangyong and KGM brand, to make lots of friends along the way and have fun whilst doing so.
