I have tryed to apply for a EU UK Drivers licence, the DVLA won't allow this unless you are a resident of the Uk for 185 days, and they don't recognize non EU Country licences.
I have tryed france and Germany in Germany you have to be completly retersted at great expense.
The direct gov uk website , has all the info about the uk regulations , but dosn't make any sense.
Your post is really hard to follow.
Someone visiting the EU with an Australian license won't generally have troubles; most EU countries don't require an IDP for most Roman-script licenses and some others don't enforce that rule (note: it's not a bad thing to have nonetheless).
As for your case, I assume you are now living in the EU, perhaps in the UK. If you reside there, you can't use a foreign license indefinitely. Where is your license from and what is your citizenship and Visa/residence status in the EU?
