Drivers License query

Drivers License query

Postby Alisunshines » Tue Dec 17, 2013 2:36 pm

We are moving out to Quesada shortly and will be permanent residents from day one. We are receiving conflicting information from the DVLA and other sources and would appreciate input from anyone who has exchanged their British license for a spanish one. For example, do you have to take a medical eyesight test?, or do you simply exchange the license at traffico?

If you want a hassle free change over the guy in linguistic opposite the bicycle shop in Quesada will do it for you for 30 you 20 Euro. Calle Los Arcos the first road after the arches. 250 m on the right hand side. Go and see nick, he will tell you what docs to bring for him to copy, then take you to Catral for your medical saving you 20 euros on the local medicals, take you docs to Cartegenia, collect their paperwork saying your licence is being processed in case you are stopped by the police and traffico will post it too you in 3 to 4 months. The charges are traffico 29.60, Nick 50 but saves you 20 so in reality 30 and if you and your wife do it together he gives a further 10 euro discount. So for all that work he charges you 20 euro and you dont use any diesel. How good is that. Mike

yes no probs and sorry about the typo. The cost effectively is 30 Euro but in reality you pay 50 but he saves you 20 by taking you to Catral. All local health checks are 40 euro but in Catral only 20 euro. Nicks [email protected]. Office tel 966 184 805 and mobile 634 174 978. He was well pleased to day when i saw him a 5 pm and thanked me cos he had 2 in for driving licence from quesada forum. The average cost from other reps is 100 to 1600 so with an excellent service and very reasonable price he is your man. Mike

You only need the medical if you are within 12 months of your UK license expiring. We were the ones in this morning so thanks for the info. Was quoted €100 plus trafico cost elsewhere. (Each)

Hi Mike,

Thank you for the recommendation and so pleased that TalkQuesada is helping and doing what we hoped it would do when we started it up two years ago.

Sorry, mike, did you misread my post? I was quoted €100 plus trafico costs elsewhere, not with Nick.
His price is excellent at €85 for two, a big saving on elsewhere. Definitely not a rip off Brit.

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh god I am sorry Nick, missunderstood completely. Yes 85 for 2 is unbelievable and he will save you 40 euro on the medicals by taking you to Catral. For you jan, no Nick is still the best around and still great value. Mike.
