I believe the answer is:

panda car

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

'bill's motor' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'pair touring canada pranged' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
an anagram of 'canada' is 'andaca' which is within the answer.
'pair' could be 'pr' (abbreviation) and 'pr' is found in the leftover letters.
No letters remain.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for panda car that I've seen before include "station wagon?" , "Police vehicle" , "Something with copper inside?" , "In official vehicle" , "One patrolling" .)
