How to get a Moped licence?

So, I've been wanting to get a Moped, I'm 18. No money for a car so I think a Moped will do me more a while. I heard that I just need to past the theory test and the maximum is 100cc.
Would anyone be able to provide more info?
Thanks

You have to do bike theory test and then apply for learner permit.
As you're 18 you can get A2 category that will let you ride bikes including mopeds. You're limited on power output, not cc of the engine. You can ride some 600cc bikes if the power is restricted to 35kw.

Then you have to do initial basic training. These are mandatory lessons you have to do before you can drive by yourself. You have to wait 6 months after getting learner permit before you can sit driving test. You will also have to take into account the cost for the bike, gear, insurance and tax.

It's a lot of work and would probably be cheaper to get an old car after building up named driver experience on a parent's car. I would only get a motorbike in this country if you have a genuine interest in them and will be keeping it long term.
