We have just returned from Spain, where we were robbed on the autopista near Valencia. We parked at the services and went for a coffee, and someone presumably stuck a nail in the back tyre during our absence. When we stopped on the Autopista to mend the ensuing puncture, a car pulled up some distance ahead. They waited until we were fully occupied with the rear wheel before one of them crept up and quietly opened the passenger door to steal everything within reach. It has apparently become a common and dangerous scam.
