Ahem. I'm not the oldest on here, by any means, Baldy Bonce
Bike was a '57 Triumph Thunderbird 6T, with a Watsonian DA sidecar. Passed the test at Heckmondwike test centre, in 1974 (July or August, can't remember now)

Did my bike test late in life - 1996 - in Poole, Dorset on a 100cc 2-stroke - after which I was allowed to ride anything I wanted to!
Car tast was rather longer ago (1964) in Evesham, Worcestershire in a Simca 1100 - wonder how many on here have ever heard of Simca?

This is all down to my older brother being a bit of Mod honest.
Lambreta TV175 , front disc brake and 'ported'. Oh and in summer 1971.... (A bit of an issue for a wanabe Hippy/Rocker....Local skin heads didn't know what to make of it, at least they seemed very curious)

Bike in 2001 on a trusty CB125 after I'd ridden the CG125 into the ground. First bike after the test was a CB250N "SUPERDREAM!". Kept blowing it up.. It was a bit like Triggers Broom in the end..lol.
Car in 2008 after spawning. First car was a Reliant Robin Mk2 LX a few years before (trusty B1 license), but first 'proper' car after the test was a Honda Accord 2.0i SE.

1973 (March): Bike Test Passed - Honda C50 step-through (not a moped as it didn't have pedals ..... had to wait an extra year to ride it because of that)
Can't remember for car test - no earlier than 1975, no later than 1977 - my dad's Volvo 145 estate
