Drive pins round (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spin

'drive' is the definition.
(I know that spin is a type of drive)

'pins round' is the wordplay.
'round' indicates anagramming the letters.
'pins' anagrammed gives 'SPIN'.

(Other definitions for spin that I've seen before include "Work natural fibres into a thread or twist a story" , "Weasel words" , "Mendacious PR; type of bowling" , "Rotate, twirl" , "Misleading slant on news" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
