Driver and guide stole stuff, reportedly (9)
I believe the answer is:
chauffeur
'driver' is the definition.
(I know that driver can be written as chauffeur)
'guide stole stuff reportedly' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'reportedly' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is located in the answer.
'stole' could be 'fur' (I've seen this in another clue) and 'fur' is found in the leftover letters.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for chauffeur that I've seen before include "One employed to drive a car for someone" , "One is paid to drive a car" , "Person employed to drive a car" , "Employed driver" , "Driver for private car" .)
