I hold a full UK driving Licence, and will want to also drive when we move to Spain, can I initially use this until I apply for a Spansh Licence, also does anyone know a driving instructor that can give me a few pointers on driving in Spain, as I would want to have refresher lessons to make sure I was competent.

Pauline.
When you make the permanent move and have obtained your Residencia you can apply to renew or exchange your U.K. driving licence for a Spanish driving licence. The procedure is different for each option. Exchanging your licence is useful if you have a long period still on your U.K. licence as the period of validity will be what is transferred to your new Spanish licence and for this option you do not need a Medical Report. I have provided a link to a post that I posted a couple of days ago about my experience of the Exchanging Process and a link to a very useful series of Guides posted by one of the other members ( Jim Taylor ) on the Forum, scroll down to the Driving In Spain section.
