Check the webpage of the Gobierno de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires and it mentions that agreement with Spain and England.
I drove to cordoba and back in march, got pulled but my Irish license was ok. I would feel better with a local version so I think I will do the test.
The cops in Cordoba are everywhere on the road and they have radars. When you pass theough Santa Fe you can relax but keep your eyes open, lights on and stay at the limit in Cordoba.
Ps...the motorway from Rosario to Cordoba is very straight and very boring!
I just renewed my driving licence today in Olivos, which is one of the least painful tramites I've ever done here.
If it's of any help, I originally got my Arg licence in 2008 by simply going to the centre in Olivos with the British licence (which oddly has a term of 50 years) and the whole thing was processed in 45 mins at a cost of around $65.
The major prerequisite was permanent residency and no test was required other than an eye test.
On this occasion I had missed the expiry date by 7 days, but was within the 30 day limit and there were no problems renewing it.
They even added motorbikes to the categories, which had been omitted previously, so now I'll be legal again.
It's a lot slicker than before and very well organised and I pick the licence up next week as they come from La Plata.
Cost this time $300.
I forgot to mention that it helps to book your turn online and print the stuff out before you go.

old paper licenses here have a photo. new ones look just like a credit cardDo you have a paper license or a photographic one?
I've been thinking of getting a license here as most places aren't keen on my old paper license (which you now need to replace in the uk before 2015 or something) I'm unable to replace it as i don't live in the uk and they won't let me replace it remotely.
I have driven through every Argentine province with my California license, and nobody has ever questioned it. Likewise in Chile.
