Have just heard from my Tesla rep that the UMC will NOT be available for UK cars, at least not at launch, I've no idea what they're thinking.. here's a clip from the email:
Which means when my Model S is delivered I will HAVE to have a Type 2 outlet in my garage and I will have no other charging option other than Type 2... Thanks Tesla. So, if it is that Tesla are going to let down their earliest owners so badly what options do I have to purchase third party charger / adapter cables from Europe?
As the standard charging lead Tesla will deliver with your Model S has been updated, here is what we can offer for your Model S:
-Type 2 Public Charging Connector (Free on delivery)
-3-pin UK lead (available as a cost accessory in the near future; may not be available in time for your delivery but soon after)
The Blue 32 Amp lead will not be sold in the UK as we are streamlining our offerings for the UK standard charging points. It may be available for purchase in our other European markets through a service center but I am still awaiting confirmation on this.
