Or if you want to DIY it then I will have to get around to writing a

32A socket on the outside wall.

Bit tricky if the property only has a single phase and neutral
(plus PME) underground supply though ??.

That bit ought not be a problem, so long as there is enough capacity.

However there are some specific requirements that apply to vehicle
charging points over and above those normally associated with outside
sockets. There is a dedicated section in the regs (722) that covers
these installations. There are also a series of BS Docs (starting BS EN
61851) that cover EV charging.

You will also need a different type of RCD (a type "A" or "B" rather
than the more typical type "AC") to protect the circuit feeding the
charge point.
