There is a 21 day time limit for appealing against any sentence and/or conviction in a court of law. You will be unable to appeal at this late stage.

It is possible after a period of 2 years (in your case) to apply to the court for early removal of your driving disqualification under section 42 of The Road Traffic Offenders Act 1988. I would recommend contacting a solicitor who can examine all relevant facts and advise you further, you can find more information here.
