I don't know if its is still true, but think you used to be able to drive a Reliant on a bike licence (not a provisional licence) provided you disabled the reverse gear - thus making it a three wheel motorbike. Probably an urban myth - and not very practical if you ever wanted to get back out of that parking space.
It's not a myth - the law changed in 1963. But more recent changes mean that you can't even ride a large motorcycle without being supervised. There are more details on the DVLA website, although it is not very clear on this point.
