No. Wightegi is right, There are no Honda C50's that can be legally ridden on a moped or car licence. You need a CBT and to be 17.

"Information for moped riders
The moped category definition changed on 19 January 2013. The European rules have now changed and because of this the category on your new driving licence will now show as AM and Q instead of the old category P.

Moped category definition
A moped (category AM) is defined as having a maximum design speed over 25km/h (15.5mph) but not exceeding 45 km/h (28 mph); or a light quadricycle with an unladen weight not more than 350kg and up to 45km/h. It has an engine capacity no greater than 50 cubic centimetres (cc) and can be moved by pedals if it was first used before 1 September 1977. "

There is no design speed information for the Honda 50's as it wasn't a requirement then. If you mange to chase down Honda, get the info, ascertain it complies with current laws, please let us know, so far no one has managed to do so.
