You can hire cars there for 30 soles - the whole process is actually well organised for renting the cars.
Regarding payments - I think you will find that the cost for the written test also covers the practical test.
I did mine last year so my memory is a little fuzzy.
One thing - take foots for the brevete and all the paperwork - that way you can pick up the brevete there and then - bcs you are not in RENIEC then they do not have copies of your picture. I ended up having to go to Lince and queue again the following day just to collect the brevete.
The website says yes for saturdays - see details :

Good luck

Depósito original del Banco de la Nación Cta. 01600 por el importe de S/. 24.50 (Derecho de Emisión de Licencia de Conducir). Tributo al MTC.

As I recall to take the written test you already had to provide proof of secondary education so that should not be necessary.

There are plenty of videos on youtube if you want to memorise the circuit / routes.

Why would someone who is, as mentioned in another thread, "going to be leaving Peru permanently" go to the trouble of getting a Peruvian Drivers license when, if you already have a UK license you might be asked to revoke it?

If I was to have a Peruvian driving licence I would be allowed to drive in Ireland on that for up to 12 months, then after that I would need to take a driving test in Ireland.

Just checking the rules in the Netherlands. There you can drive up to 6 months with a non-EU license ONLY if you got it at least 185 days before you left the country where you got that license. So what you are trying to do would not be allowed in Holland. And rules around the EU seem to be kind of similar. I would check it out a bit better, instead of trusting a flyer on a website..

The link I supplied (NDLS) is the official site for driving licence in Ireland.
On NDLS's website it has this for holders of driving licences-from other countries issued by non recognised states:
If you are not from any of the above countries, (for example The United States), and you hold a national driving licence or an international driving permit from your own country, you may drive in Ireland for the duration of your temporary visit (up to 12 months).
If your stay in Ireland will be more than 12 months you can apply for an Irish driving licence but you will need to go through the full driver licensing procedure. You must first pass a driver theory test , apply for a learner permit, complete a course of Essential Driver Training(EDT) and pass your driving test in Ireland. If you pass your driving test, you can then apply for a full Irish driving licence.
According to the rules in Holland it states:
If you have a valid driving licence that was issued outside one of the countries of the EU or the EFTA, or in the Netherlands Antilles or Aruba, then you can use it for another 185 days after becoming a resident in the Netherlands. During that period you must obtain a Dutch driving licence.
Your current driving licence, if issued in a country outside the EU, was issued after being a resident of that country for at least 185 days.
