ok , so you can use your existing licence in the uk until you are 70 presuming it is still valid , could be 50 years !no compunction to change
fortunately in france they don't ask about your licence so the cost of insurance isn't affected

under EU law you don't have to contact the authorities in your new country ; as so often the DVLA website is wrong ; your licence from the uk continues to be valid so long as you can be contacted there at the address stated ; how do you think gypsies can have a licence ?
