Use D4D . About £55

Use D4D . About £55

And there is a website discount

Always use D4D, they are fine if you are healthy.

If you have any health conditions, especially heart, you may have to go to your GP in any case.

Too much faff for us so Martin didn't bother with the C1 renewal as it would have been difficult to leave me for at least half a day had he needed to do treadmill etc.

I also didn't bother with C1 renewal, current van is 3500

Never had heart problems but aorta aneurism repair took 13 months to get license back.
But able to drive in this country on a section 88 that I had to renew

Does having had Bowel Cancer a big thing when applying for a licence when your applying at 70?

That's gross extortion.

Might be a significant problem with getting medical/travel insurance (depending how long ago, whether or not still being followed up and having chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy) but I would not have thought it affected Licence renewal.

That's cheap
I asked my doctor how much a few years ago out of interest ....£400.
They obviously don't want to do private medicals

Diagnosed 2022, had it removed & then had another Tumour 2024 & then Chemo to sort that, but need to sort 2026

I wouldn’t have thought so either but sadly the D4D doctor insisted in adding it to form although I said it was not declarable and the resultant 6 month fiasco to get my C1 ended with me only getting it for a year with no explanation or reply to my 2 formal complaints .
No problems with getting single trip insurance shortly after chemo , now looking to get annual insurance from Insurance With but need to know if I have a licence which enables me to drive the van . Current one in hands of DVLA - they sent me a form asking how my cancer had affected my driving.. answer was that it had not. Fingers X
