Crimson vehicle belonging to me (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

carmine

'crimson' is the definition.
('carmine' can be a synonym of 'crimson')

'vehicle belonging to me' is the wordplay.
'vehicle' becomes 'car' (car is a kind of vehicle).
'belonging to me' becomes 'mine' (I've seen this before).
'car'+'mine'='CARMINE'

(Other definitions for carmine that I've seen before include "Crimson pigment" , "Bright red" , "Vivid red colour" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
