Crossword Genius

More suited to being a mechanic (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fitter

This clue is a double definition.

'more suited' is the first definition.
('fit' can be similar in meaning to 'suited')

'a mechanic' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

'to being' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for fitter that I've seen before include "better equipped" , "to get in better shape" , "less likely to feel fatigue" , "Assembler; more suitable" , "A skilled technician" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
