anyone passed a b+e test?
id like to tow trailers bigger than my current limits, so im thinking of doing the b+e test at a local place. Anyone done one? How hard and how much?!
(i know i could ring and ask a price, i want an idea of how much it is typically... )

No, but I'm doing it in the New Year.
Not really investigated it yet though!

They have said £45 for an assessment to see how many days training you need - be good if they say i dont need any but that seems unlikely!

I had been towing since I started driving in Africa only to have the new uk licence remove my towing allowance as well as my bike licence and my
trike licence(TUKTUK)
I need to do this as well. One thing that gals me is that the wife has all the allowances and cant drive for shit

Trikes are category B1, a sub-category of B, so you should still be OK with them.
Why did you lose motorcycle and trailer?
