Went for a breakfast in SOHO this morning, and after driving around for half an hour I parked up in some side street, we had a nice breakfast then did a little shopping along Regent Street before heading back to the car, unfortunately I couldnt remeber where I had parked :headbang:

We must have walked for miles up and down lots of side streets before my wife said I better extend the parking, which is when I remembered i payed for parking with the app and had to put in the location number, sure enough there it was Great Pulteney treet lol

As it seems I am now getting older and cant remember where I park, I am going to re-use one of my old android phones, with a battery pack and leave it permanently on in the glovebox so I will always be able to locate the car with Google find my phone :D

She’s a bit rough round the edges but I’m very forgiving....

If you use Waze it now remembers where you park your car, without you having to ask it to :thumbsup:

It won’t remind you what to do with her though. Probably another app for that :D

BMW Connected App is great for this on newer cars.

I lost a work van once in a pay and display area, found it with minutes to spare on my ticket.
