American starts to eat disgusting cold and raw banger (4,3)
I believe the answer is:
used car
'banger' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'american starts to eat disgusting cold and raw' is the wordplay.
'american' becomes 'us' (United States).
'starts to' indicates taking the first letters.
The initial letters of 'eat disgusting cold and raw' is 'edcar'.
'us'+'edcar'='USED-CAR'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for used car that I've seen before include "Second-hand motor" , "Second-hand vehicle" , "Previously-owned motor" .)
