Attempted Robbery in a British Car

Take care if your driving about with UK plates .... happened to me yesterday just North of Madrid. Metallic Blue Peugeot Coupe (maybe 406). Nothing stolen but I will not stop for anyone in future.

Neighbours car Audi A6 stolen but returned last week after covering 12k miles in 2 months. Police says our houses were the first 2 of 10 in Moraleja they hit in at the same time, some included violence. 1 robber caught and was from North Africa (Algerian I think).

I really like Spain for many reasons BUT its a country which is still developing, has some rough edges and civil behavior maturing. Graffiti, dog muck, robbery, car jacking, driving standards, etc I guess every country has its own feel ... good & bad
