8d (s)even t ?
6a POSTER [notice] - model = poser, hint of tog = t => posTer

8d EVENT [occurrence] - topless prime = (s)even), time = t => even t
6a pos t er
almighty ...I'm +a light +y (yard)
alight round im reversed + y

Thanks all. I was thinking model T Ford.
alight outside m and y for yard, but m for I'm is worrying me
^^^ but that would result in 2 I's ?

But what else would fit?
mi ghtil y ?
I think that, regrettably, this is yet another example of the utterly appalling deterioration in quality of the clue setting of the Sunday Times cryptic crossword.

For shame...
It is ALMIGHTY but he screwed up the anagram.

AL MI IGHT y

To rest = ALIGHT but there's an "I" missing.
glad to see others are disgusted with the pathetic setting ot the sun times crossword lately ! 6a should read with hint of togs and not without hint of togs. gonna move on to a different crossword for sunday afternoons if this persists !
I also got totally confused due to this clue and came up with the decision that it had to be Almighty.... since that's the only thing that would fit. Really bad clue!
Happy to see that I wasn't the only struggler here, less happy to see the Sunday Times going ever more steadily downhill...

To be fair, "without" can mean "outside" ie. POSER outside T
