On our resort, Terrazas de la Torre, many people who have purchased "new" apartments from the bank have the same issue. It's damp that gradually gets into the ceramic of the element which results in a tiny bit of electricity leaking to earth. When this happens the Earth Leakage breaker in your consumer unit trips. There's two ways used to fix it. First try running it at its lowest temperature for a few hours, then step it up a bit, leave it another hour then should be ok. Second method requires you to remove the earth connection from the oven, then run it at a medium heat. Remember to reconnect the earth when finished as it's there for safety reasons.
Hope that helps.
