Nope. The +E entitlement cascades down, not up.

as above, there's another test you need to do that will give you C1 + E on the license

you will have to do C1 first then C1+E . It wouldn't cost much more to do C first which lets you drive any rigid wagon then C1+E

Just do your HGV test and be done with it
It would enable you to drive/tow any combination apart from minibus I believe  2002 90 Td5 Station Wagon

As above, may as well do your C&E if you can, covers you for everything then. 2011 110 USW

B - Vehicles more than 2 wheels, upto 3.5t, trailer upto 750Kg
BE - '' trailers over 750Kg upto Train Weight of 7t C1 - Vehicles 3.5 - 7.5t, trailer upto 750Kg C1E - '' trailers over 750Kg upto Train Weight of 12t C - Vehicles over 7.5t, trailer upto 750Kg CE - '' trailers over 750Kg (though a 102 restriction code limits to wagon and drag only, NOT artics - no 102, no restrictions) So B over 750 = BE BE over 7t = C1E C1E over 12t = CE CE though does not always mean you can BEm depending when you passed what test. And date of passing what test (or grandfather rights) make a massive difference. TY&GN 10 years in a WOLF, WIMIK and Snatch and this is all I have to show! |

For clairity, as this point gets confused. If you do B&E, and then, say, Cat C, you can only tow 750KG behind a cat C vehicle, not 3500KG which many people assume. The "B" entitlement does not carry over to the next class up. To tow anything over 750KG (eg a 3500KG trailer) behind a cat C vehicle you would need C&E. 2011 110 USW
