l drove a 3 wheeler Robin Reliant for a year on my full bike licence, its clasified as a tricycle. After a year l passed my driving test and purchased a car. l gained 4 years no claims discount from riding bikes the previous few years and my new insurance company allowed me to transfer the no claims discount onto my new car insurance which helped out a lot.

This was six years ago and dont know if the laws have changed in that time, you need to do some research

tricycle or quadricycles can be driven on a full motorbike licence. a quadricycle is a 'four-wheeled vehicle having a net engine power not exceeding 15KW & an unladen mass not exceeding 400KG (550KG if a goods vehicle). it is classified B1 on ur licence, but can be driven with classification A
this means the elcetric G-wiz is a quadricycle, as r some micro cars.
here is a list of some cars which qualify (some r no longer made)
Aixam
500.4: Light quadricycle diesel – unladen
weight 350 kg; can be a saloon or
minivan
500.5: Heavy quadricycle petrol or diesel –
unladen weight 400 kg; can be a
saloon or minivan

Chatenet
Media: Light quadricycle diesel – unladen
weight 350 kg

Ligier (Reliant)
Ambra: Light quadricycle

Mega
Van, chassis cab, pick-up or drop-side

l have never understood the reluctance of a few bikers to fully embrace the car. If u have ridden bikes, u have gained road-sense, u have some mechanical knowledge & sympathy, u will make a better car driver than most. l am a motorist who also rides bikes, & l think that has been key to my hitting 25 years without hitting anything!
So please, take some lessons, pass ur test, & get a ''normal'' car, & not one of those preposterour Reliant death-traps, FIVE of which l have seen on fire over the years, one of which l helped get a rather dazed, very tubby guy & his wife & kid out of, as it burned merrily in a road-side ditch. l recommend the Mercedes-Benz 190E.

short answer is no , could drive reliant 3 wheeler but that was stopped in 2001 . if you passed your bike test before that you might be ok . there are NO 4 wheelers you can drive on a bike license.three wheeler without reverse is utter bollocks.

Any three wheeler that as no reverse gear.

No 4 wheeled cars just 3 wheelers

You can drive the Reliant Robin... l am thinking of getting one.
krystal     Reply with quote
If l can remember right, you can drive a reliant robin, BUT only if the reverse gear has been blocked off
