You can only drive a 50cc on a UK provisional License. You can drive upto a 125cc bike or scooter on full UK license.

It is my understanding that in Spain there is no such thing as a Provisional Driving Licence.

Have to agree with the others, a provisional be it UK or others donīt count for nothing over here, having said that i rode around on a 50cc for 2 yrs with a UK provisional and i was ok but i never got pulled and my scooter was a brand new one so maybe they presumed i had a license x

Or son,Joshua was stopped by the Cuerpo National De Policia one evening last year near Costa Del Silencio with a passenger on the back of his 50cc Yamaha scooter.
I think it was a drugs stop,however they let him through even though he only had a UK provisional license!!

A UK provisional License allows you to drive a 50cc Scooter. It can not mean that it means Diddly as if you were stopped and did not have any License then you are stuffed. They accept a UK Provisional. Also Topacio the bike rental company allows you to rent a scooter 50cc on a Provisional, without one you can not hire one.
