Default License Question

So i hold my full bike license and to be nice to my mother i kinda agreed to learn to drive and said i'd drive in winter and can stop having heart attacks everytime i ride in winter so my question asically is, on a full license do i have to give the money grabbing meanies another 50 quid for a provisional car license or can it just go on my current license?

AFAIK, you have the provisional facility still valid on your bike license for car.
Well I can't drive and have had lessons since acquiring my full bike license five years ago. The instructor said it was perfectly fine.

No need to spend the money, you have provisional entitlement on the car mate. I did my bike test last year and the car test in october. You need to do the theory again though.
