Done this only 18mths ago if i remember right they send you a form to fill in and request for new photo. I don't think i requested it,it was sent automatically.

if you have a Passport,You can do it on line no problem at all .They used the passport photo on the new licence as I still had the original Paper one.

I have just tried to run through the online process - it didn't let me get far, I'm not old enough. Not often that I get told I am not old enough

It does depend on how far away you are from 70,

I did have a letter from the DVLA saying my licence is about to expire,This was in the December as my licence expired in the January.

And as said I then did it on line with no problem using my pasport ID

It says on the site - within 90 days of your birth date (prior to).

I don't have a photo licence, just the old green printed paper one, so they will not have my mug shot on file.
