Vehicle snooty type gets to take away (4,3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cart off

'take away' is the definition.
(carting off is a kind of taking away)

'vehicle snooty type' is the wordplay.
'vehicle' becomes 'car' (car is a kind of vehicle).
'snooty type' becomes 'toff' (toff can mean an upper-class person).
'car'+'toff'='CART OFF'

'gets to' is the link.

(Other definitions for cart off that I've seen before include "Remove" , "Take away (colloq.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
