Lorry with puncture blighted with no illumination (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

flatbed

'lorry' is the definition.

'puncture blighted with no illumination' is the wordplay.
'puncture' becomes 'flat' (I've seen this before**).
'with no' is a deletion indicator.
'illumination' becomes 'light' (light is a kind of illumination).
'blighted' with 'light' taken out is 'bed'.
'flat'+'bed'='FLATBED'

'with' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
