Knight in a vehicle moving right (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chevalier

'knight' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a vehicle moving right' is the wordplay.
'moving' is an anagram indicator (letters are moved around).
'right' becomes 'r' (abbreviation).
'a'+'vehicle'='avehicle'
'avehicle' is an anagram of 'chevalie'.
'chevalie'+'r'='CHEVALIER'

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for chevalier that I've seen before include "novelist" , "Each viler than the strange knight" , "French actor and singer" , "Old (French) "knight"" , "young Charlie?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
