I doubt whether the local authority has even kept the records if it's anything like the one where I passed my test.
A few years ago, I had to fill in a form for my then employer in order to drive one of the company pool cars on business. One of the questions was date of passing driving test. I couldn't remember exactly- definitely knew year and could make a stab at the month. My colleagues said it was on my driving licence (this was just pre the two part one with photo on). But there was nothing on my licence. So I contacted DVLA at Swansea and asked them why the date wasn't on my licence. They told me they had no records for test dates for people who had passed their test prior to the system being administered by them computerised and suggested I contact the local authority who had issued my first licence. But when I did that, the local authority said they didn't have the records and referred me back to Swansea. So I never found out exactly.
