I passed my full bike test in febuary this year(2009) and was just wondering if there are any cars i could drive on it. I only have "a" "k" "p" entitlements on my licence. From what i understand the microcars need a bike licence before 2001 but what about the piaggio ape ect. Or are there any cars i could drive on my provisional car licence unaccompanied. Any help would be appreciated thanks.

You need B1 on your license to drive three wheeled vehicles.

Just been looking at the Piaggio Ape, and WTF. Laughing

There's a few kit bike engined kit cars you could probably just about do, definitely some of the single seaters.

However, realistically it's always going to make more financial sense to do your car test as there's masses of cheap 'normal' cars about that offer a lot more.

unfortunately since the licensing laws were changed in 2002 a full motorcycle license obtained after 2002 no longer allows the holder to drive micro cars or tricycles

you can drive single seater cars or single seater trikes but you will have to do it with L plates on a learner car license or take a car test

unless the vehicle in question has a 50cc engine, & then it's classed as a moped with more than two weels & you can drive that

What he said. The car test is very easy to pass if you're a competent driver. Thumbs Up Then you can drive whatever four wheeled vehicle tickles your fancy. Including Quad bikes!
