Could you give the full clue for those of us who don't have the puzzle, please?

what is the full clue please?

sorry, should have explained:
in the style of: a la
r = rand
city

Sorry, too cross to be precise!
8d In the style of Durban, say, to secure rand for expedition.

still not sure why it means expedition. thought it meant liveliness??

If you expedite something, you do it quickly - with alacrity.

Thank you, of course.
Amazingly was just driving along listening to Round Britain Quiz when it was said the team answered with expedition and I thought of course... but then that's advancing years and craft moments.
