Tragic end for a vehicle in Ireland (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cavan

'in ireland' is the definition.
(I know that Cavan is a county of Ireland)

'tragic end for a vehicle' is the wordplay.
'end' indicates one should take the final letters.
'for' says to put letters next to each other.
'vehicle' becomes 'van' (type of vehicle).
The final letter of 'tragic' is 'c'.
'c'+'a'+'van'='CAVAN'

(Another definition for cavan that I've seen is " Irish town".)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
