It's been a while since I took a car to Europe - and that wasn't an electric one. I am trying to put together an essentials list to cover the standard stuff and then EV specific. I'd welcome any thoughts on anything omitted.
1 Repair kit. I have 2 tyre plug kits and a compressor. Does the Tesla red box kit contain a warning triangle as I have never looked. Also is there a first aid kit in there? I think I need to get reflective jackets for each occupant. I want to get 1/4 jack pucks but am a bit puzzled on the type needed for the Model S. I have seen some that are rectangular with 3 studs but I also see this type - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08788V...olid=1N2RA1KL2FETO&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it that claim compatibility with the MS. Can anyone confirm please?
2 We will be going to France although may stray elsewhere. Looks like we will have to avoid Paris and certain other cities as we have no time left to apply for one of these - "Order your CRIT'Air clean air sticker early if you expect to be driving in Paris" Certificats qualité de l’air : Crit’Air
3 Charging cards - have got a Maingau and plugsurfing card on order.
4 2 x breathalyser test sticks
5 Insurance certificate, driving licence and registration certificate
6 Headlamp adjusters? Are these needed or is there eg a software setting to use?
7 GB sticker - I assume a magnetic one won't work on the MS body panels? Can anyone recommend a stick on version that can ultimately be removed easily without leaving gunk all over the car?
thanks
