Passed my bike test 45 years ago and still have my third motorbike - this I bought 43 years ago.
Passed my car test the same year, still have my 3rd and 4th cars - without checking bought these 42 and 41 years ago.
Also have a few vehicles bought since then.
Passed my HGV 1 test 40 years ago, but have let the license lapse as hadn’t used it recently.
Had permit for forklift.
Passed various IAM and Rospa advanced tests.
Several skid pan and skid car sessions.
A few track, Snow/Ice, off road and trailer training permits.
Driven tractors, tanks, diggers, karts...
Boat helming permit, for narrowboats and tugs.
Probably various other bits I don’t remember as its a long time.

Passed car test in June 1963 ... 57 years ago.
Test for PSV followed in '66
HGV 2 (Grandfather's rights) when Licence re-introduced around '71 (?)
HGV 1 course & test '77

HGV/PSV entitlement dropped when I hit 70, hadn't used either for years anyway & wasn't going to pay for a medical or go through the stupid EU cert. of competence.

53 years and I have been working on my own cars all that time starting with a 1959 MGA
