Transport hit man uses with exuberance (10)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

enthusiasm

'exuberance' is the definition.
('enthusiasm' can be a synonym of 'exuberance')

'transport hit man uses' is the wordplay.
'transport' is an anagram indicator (each letter must be moved or 'transported').
'hit'+'man'+'uses'='hitmanuses'
'hitmanuses' with letters rearranged gives 'ENTHUSIASM'.

'with' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for enthusiasm that I've seen before include "Zeal" , "Avidity" , "spirit?" , "Intense and lively interest" , "Ardour" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
