Expat vespa - only a 50cc, but its a start

[straggleyway]

Hello
I'm outside of the UK, but have always longed for a Vespa. Finally, i've got a black 1982 PX 50.

Its only a 50cc - I'll need to work on my MC license before I upgrade.

I know I'll be asking dumb questions, apologies in advance

Do all Vespa folks get a MC license in the UK ? I've forgotten the UK rules.

A CBT should do to get you back on the saddle for the first 2 years (one day training course with a provisional licence at the end of it, with compulsory 'L' plates, no pillion and no motorways
