Conversion does not mean relegating your Uk Licence. I converted my Uk Licence to a WA licence. i still kept the uk licence. i then got my r class, which i wanna now put back onto my UK licence when i move back... guess i just speak to the DVLA on this one..

Dont think thats how it works. Nothing stopping you having two licences, if you take the situation of 457 Visa holders, they are temporary visiotrs, so nothing stopping them getting a australian licnce whilst still having a british one. Not sure how it works for ireland, but pretty sure there is nothing stopping you holding both an UK and Australian Driving Licence.

Ok... here's a strange question that might be easy to answer, but I cant find the answer online anywhere. I'm going back to Scotland at the end of August. I've got a full UK Car licence, and had passed my CBT for motorbikes but left for Australia before actually sitting my test. In Australia, i got my bike licence, unrestricted, and have been riding big bikes for over 5 years... Now, i know i can convert an australian licence to a UK licence, but i already have a uk licence. I just need my Motorbike entitlement added to my UK licence, so i can get insurance when i buy a bike when i get back home. Is that possible? is it just a form? im guessing ill have to take a trip to the local DVLA office, no big deal, kjust thought id ask here in case someones been through the same process at all?

Cheers Iron Monkey!! What would we do without ya!! :yellow_guy_smiling_

hi LadyJady, I'm kind of in the same boat as you, insofar as i was thinking about having my mondeo sent over. Its also not one shown in redbook.com, as i don't think oz had this specific model (its a 53 plate Zetec s tdci.) Interested to know what everyone else thinks. (i know its not a BMW or anything, but if its gonna cost around £1500, might be better to just bring this car across, as opposed to spending the same on a car when i get to oz...)
