A Communist vehicle in Cleveland (6)
I believe the answer is:
redcar
'cleveland' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'a communist vehicle' is the wordplay.
'a communist' becomes 'red' (red is a kind of communist).
'vehicle' becomes 'car' (car is a kind of vehicle).
'red'+'car'='REDCAR'
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for redcar that I've seen before include "northern coastal town" , "North Yorkshire town" , "Racecourse" , "Town in Cleveland" , "Town near 11 [HARTLEPOOL]" .)
