I'm guessing that the problem is indeed the triangulation of requirements as to siting (per @jcesare's comments) and the cramped space available on the preferred wall. I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't a requirement as to height of placement (high enough to be line-of-site for the reader, possibly, although gas meters certainly don't have this problem).
The inverter for the PV system is way up on the wall due to this. It's LCD screen that provides rolling status is very difficult to read, given this (coupled with my need to get my eyes/glasses at just the right focal point).
Yes indeed, @davewill, wires (and 1 or 2 conduits) will have to go over to the new meter, then back to the garage wall.
Been a busy morning here at work, but have a bit of a break and will give a call, see if it can move back to THE wall. If it can, and the install is delayed, so be it; who knows if I'll get the car on the week of 22nd or not anyway? Given the track record, I kinda doubt it, and even if so, I can hang with L1 charging for a while.
