house builder wants me to remove my driveway

Correct, removal/restriction of PD rights is not automatic, but is commonly done by planning authorities on new builds to ensure conditions and restrictions for the development are not circumvented by individual householders.Just because the builder had to comply with certain planning matters to get their designs approved doesn't necessarily mean the permitted development has been removed from a property.
As I said, it is difficult (but not impossible) to believe that PD rights for creating additional parking spaces were not removed.
The first thing the OP ought to check is the PD status in relation to parking areas (and also any planning restrictions against the new(?) fence between his front garden and the neighbours)."In the future, everyone will be rich for 15 minutes"0
