Golden visas and UK driving licence

I know of several that do the medical type testing in Rojales and La Siesta. Not sure if they do the actual exchange but they will do the renewals. I think you just need to make an appointment with trafico in the area by dialling 060 or using the website to book an appointment which is Cita Previa DGT

There are a couple of places in Quesada which will do it for you (at a price) and one is One Way Services and another the Expat Centre. 

When you go through the (rather convoluted way to choose a centre) you get Alicante, Elche, Murcia and Cartagena in this area. The pages also gives you a link to the request form but only in Castillain or Catalan. Request Form

They also tell you what documents you need to take with you but they will only do it with a prebooked appointment. 

Living in Spain for a year can be an exciting adventure, and there are potential advantages, like immersing yourself in a new culture, enjoying the beautiful scenery, and experiencing a different way of life. As for your UK driving license, in many cases, it remains valid while you're abroad, making it convenient to get around.

Thank you for your advice. How are you going to live legally in Spain for a year and use a UK driving licence? Do you have diplomatic status?
