Stole small motor -- getting fine (5)
I believe the answer is:
scarf
'stole' is the definition.
(stole can mean a scarf or shawl)
'small motor getting fine' is the wordplay.
'small' becomes 's' (abbreviation - e.g. clothes size).
'motor' becomes 'car' (informal term for car).
'getting' says to put letters next to each other.
'fine' becomes 'f' (abbreviation).
's'+'car'+'f'='SCARF'
(Other definitions for scarf that I've seen before include "Neck warmer" , "Neck/head garment" , "Neck-warmer" , "Item worn on head or shoulders" , "Neck or head wrap" .)
