Hi all,
Vanilla are planning an update to the site on April 24th (next Wednesday). It is a major PHP8 update which is expected to boost performance across the site. The site will be down from 7pm and it is expected to take about an hour to complete. We appreciate your patience during the update.
Thanks all.

I exchanged my uk license end of 2019. Never gave any thought to the 'motorcycle' classes on it. So AM is a small moped - is that <50cc? What is the A? I dont/cant ride a motorcycle, have driven a moped about twice in 20 yrs

Yes. AM is a moped. Up to 50cc, and with a top speed of no more than 45km/h
The A Licence has the 79.03 restriction. This restricts you to Trikes only.
Both these categories are simply a "grandfather clause" which applies in your case as you would have held a full Car Licence in an EU State prior to certain dates.
