Looked after a car for someone (5)
I believe the answer is:
cared
'looked after' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'a car for someone' is the wordplay.
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'someone' becomes 'ed' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'car'+'ed'='CARED'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cared that I've seen before include "had feelings" , "Felt affection (for)" , "Was concerned" , "Felt concern or interest" , "Tended" .)
