UK driver's License

When I hit 70 I will find it harder to get a car rental. I would like to have a UK license. My old paper one I lost years ago. Any suggestions on what I can do?

From your other posts, it seems like you live in the USA. I don't think you can get a UK license if you're living in the USA.

Why do you think it will be harder to get a car rental on a US license, as opposed to a UK one?

It is illegal to apply for a new or licence renewal unless you are a UK resident.
