Commercial vehicle in rainstorm in Paradise? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

nirvana

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'paradise?' is the definition.
(I know that Eden can be written as nirvana)

'commercial vehicle in rainstorm' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'vehicle' could be 'van' (van is a kind of vehicle) and 'van' is located in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for nirvana that I've seen before include "Buddhist blessed extinction" , "Buddhist state of bliss; enlightenment" , "Kurt Cobain group" , "Buddhists' transcendental state" , "Transcendent state - US grunge band" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
