Was down south to find vehicles (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mopeds

'vehicles' is the definition.
(moped is a kind of vehicle)

'was down south' is the wordplay.
'was down' becomes 'moped' (to mope is to be sad or down).
'south' becomes 'S' (synonyms).
'moped'+'s'='MOPEDS'

'to find' is the link.

(Other definitions for mopeds that I've seen before include "Lightweight motorcycles" , "Light motor cycles" , "Low-powered motor-cycles" , "bikes" , "Low-powered motorbike" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
