A $130,000 SUV stolen in Dunedin looks to have been abandoned in a South Dunedin shopping car park.

Senior Sergeant Liz Waru, of Dunedin, said the 2014 Porsche Macan was stolen from the corner of Forbury Rd and Victoria Rd near St Clair Beach between 11.45am and 2pm yesterday.

The owner had lost her keys in St Clair and had called someone to pick her up to collect her spare key at home.

When she returned, the SUV had been stolen.

The vehicle was found this afternoon in the car park of the Warehouse in South Dunedin.

An ODT reporter at the scene said it appeared to be undamaged.
