Office for Ilfov is the same as Bucharest I think, that being the one in Pipera.

You can carry on using your UK licence until it expires. Changing it to a Romanian one doesn't require much; a doctor's note, a form, some fees (which might have been scrapped recently), and an official translation of your licence and passport or whatever. It takes a little while because they have to wait to hear back from DVLA in the UK which can take a few weeks. I posted in more detail back in 2014 when I did mine; use the search function.
