Tesla UK warranty - is it valid in Europe

[vitesse]

We're going to move to France - does anybody know if the warranty will be honoured there (this is a Tesla used car warranty; we still have 36,000 miles/2 years and 9 months remaining).

yes if have agreed with EU by the end of this year

The Used Vehicle warranty on the French Tesla site uses exactly the same wording as the one on the UK site and doesn't state any territory restrictions.
Maybe call Tesla Bordeaux to check...

Thanks @Sparkeur - it seems I have nothing to worry about.

I asked a question on the France forum about deals on installing a charging point at the house but no response yet. Would you know the rough price? (it's around £500 here in the UK).

Would you know the rough price? (it's around £500 here in the UK).

I use my M3LR about 15% ( from 80%) most days and use cheap hours from 1am to 7am to recharge on a domestic plug which has worked fine but I decided to install a charger just to speed things up. As far as cost, I guess it depends on where you live. In or near a big town I presume it would be cheaper but we live in the Charente Maritime and getting a good local electrician is a little bit harder. For that reason, I've gone with IZI/EDF. It's probably a bit more expensive but it's guaranteed and underwritten by EDF. The total cost for installation including the Hager Witty charger is 960€.

Wow - that's a lot compared to here - though there is a government subsidy. I have been advised to buy the charge point here (around £400) and get it installed by a local electrician.

 

[Sparkeur]

I don't know - is it expensive? The charger after government discount is 500€ (so the same as the Tesla one, which isn't available at the moment) and the installation which is a run from the consumer panel of about 10 metres, 460€

 

[vitesse]

The typical rate for an installation in the UK is £500- £600 including all the parts.

My bad...I also get a 300€ tax credit on the installation but of course, you have to be a resident tax payer to get that.
