Being slightly pedantic here, but no licence would mean no insurance - and therefore liable to seizure of the car. No licence per se wouldn't mean seizure of the car.
A condition of the insurance policy is that you hold a licence for the vehicle insured - hence if you have no licence, or an expired licence, disqualified, or provisional licence and are driving without a qualified driver - then you invalidate your insurance and you have no insurance - hence seizure of the vehicle.

There's no difference between a full car licence and a full motorcycle licence apart from a catagory..
It's just all so confusing  Anyway before I drag this more off-topic I've asked in one of the motorcycle forums I belong to as one of the other mods is an insurance journalist  |
I think they mean how long have you held a licence for the class of vehicle which you wish to insure.
I have the reverse problem - a car licence for some 30 yrs which includes moped, but when they ask how long I have been riding a moped, then I have to say truthfully only a couple of years.
