Has a try to repair saucer (7)
I believe the answer is:
ashtray
'saucer' is the definition.
(saucer for cigarette ash)
'has a try to repair' is the wordplay.
'to repair' indicates an anagram (letters are fixed or repaired).
'has'+'a'+'try'='hasatry'
'hasatry' with letters rearranged gives 'ASHTRAY'.
(Other definitions for ashtray that I've seen before include "Place for cigarette ends" , "where smoking remains are found" , "Receptacle for tobacco detritus" , "Dish for smokers" , "Where to rest cigarette" .)
