One thing you should be aware of is if you learn to drive and subsequently pass your driving test in an automatic car, then you will only have a licence to drive automatic cars.
If however, you learn and pass in a manual car your licence will be for manual and automatic cars
Whilst of course you are right, my first wife took a test in about 1975 in UK, in a Daf, that was an automatic, but the examiner by mistake gave her a pass for a manual. I suspect she frightened the life out of him on the test !Originally Posted by SimonH

My present wife got a DL in Phil before she came to Spain. I say got a DL as she did not take any sort of test and had never even sat behind the wheel in any car. That was 9 years ago. At that time she could not exchange a Phil DL for a Spanish one, but a few years ago they changed the law, so she has a full Spanish D/L, although she still cannot actually drive !
