One could always request a ruling from the DVLA but perhaps it is best to let sleeping dogs lie.


The DVLA are only concerned with licencing so I wouldn't think they'd have an interest. How they classify the M3W will define who can drive one and how much the tax is but won't have anything to do with front number plates.

Homologation is the realm of the Vehicle Certification Agency and Construction and Use is the Department for Transport. As I pointed out earlier, these agencies all have their own definitions of what constitutes a "trike" and they are all different.

I admit to a fair amount of ignorance on the workings of the UK system, but the document in the link is published by the DVLA here

My only dealings with them are for my driver's licence, but that is another story.

I'm sure you are correct Ian but there does seem to be some overlap in departmental responsibilities.
