Yes but you will have to Mot, tax, insure it etc, not worth it.
I would just learn on their bike (if you drop it etc its not your problem), get your license and then get what you want.
By that i mean the sv is good for doing your manvoures on and general commuting style riding/learning, but if you wanted a sports bike, you will not want to do your test on it as they have the turning circle of a Bardge.

You won't pay less than that on anything, be it a moped of a fucking milk float.
I await you telling me you can get insured on an R7 for 50p.

£240 fully comp on my Ducati 748 
Anyway, i'd go for an RS125. i had one and loved it for the short time that i had it. If you get a good one to start with and look after it and use premium quality oil you should be fine. Yeah they are more involved in riding and looking after, but they are worth it! Two stroke's rock my world!

It cost me more to insure a rs125 than it does my bike

Because they are a high risk bike due to the fact they are normally owned by pre-pubesant brainless fuck tards who park them in other drivers boots.
