£50,000 luxury car with no registered keeper found abandoned in Sheffield

The red Audi RS3 - recommended retail price £49,290 - was discovered on St Mary's Gate near Sheffield city centre on August 21.

The officers who found the car and removed it said the vehicle was found to have no registered keeper.

A post on South Yorkshire Police's Sheffield South West Facebook page attracted dozens of amusing comments from members of the public.

Stuart Mckenzie said: "Wondered where I’d left it."

Brian Boguszewicz said: "Dibs on the next one you find!"

And Matthew Holmshaw said: "I’ll have it."

Others suggested it may have been stolen from a dealership or used as a 'pool car' by criminals.
