British motor has crashed where Americans go (9)
I believe the answer is:
bathrooms
'where americans go' is the definition.
(US term for toilets, ie places to 'go')
'british motor has crashed' is the wordplay.
'british' becomes 'b' (abbreviation e.g. in 'BBC').
'crashed' is an anagram indicator.
'motor'+'has'='motorhas'
'motorhas' anagrammed gives 'athrooms'.
'b'+'athrooms'='BATHROOMS'
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
