Jack, perhaps taken from vehicle by daughter (4)
I believe the answer is:
card
'jack perhaps' is the definition.
(jack is a playing card)
'vehicle by daughter' is the wordplay.
'vehicle' becomes 'car' (car is a kind of vehicle).
'by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'daughter' becomes 'd'.
'car'+'d'='CARD'
'taken from' is the link.
(Other definitions for card that I've seen before include "Eg, a heart or club" , "programme at race meeting" , "Comb (wool)" , "club perhaps" , "Amusing person" .)
