I.e., take the wreck back to the garage (2,3)

I believe the answer is:

to wit

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'i e take the wreck back' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'to the garage' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'to' is within the answer.
The remaining letters 'wit' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for to wit that I've seen before include "Namely" , "specifically" , "i.e." , "In other words" , "That is to say" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
