If you spend any more time on CUK you'll age quicker and become dumber faster, soon you'll lose will to live, so better get out of here while you can.

I used to use my license card with the colour photo as ID (because yes, I am that beautiful and youthful) but in recent years, they have started doing black and white sketches of your photo, mine is so bad it looks like a child went a bit mad with etcho-sketch.
Anyway in short, be aware of the shoddy quality on licenses now and if you get ID'd sometimes or even need to show ID for assignments, you may have to buy additional ID.

Forgot to mention, a Jesus Christ phoned earlier Xoggoth asking if you still had that shekel he lent you.

AIUI the licence doesn't expire until you're 70, but the photo does after 10 years, so better get a new pic without the mullett.

And just something else to think about for anyone sending their licence to the DVLA, if you have motorcycle entitlement, make a copy of your license before you send it because they have a bad habit of not putting the motorcycle entitlement back on the new licence and then you have to prove you had entitlement in the first place and if you cannot you will have to take a retest
