Girl takes vehicle to LA (5)
I believe the answer is:
carla
'girl' is the definition.
'vehicle to la' is the wordplay.
'vehicle' becomes 'car' (car is a kind of vehicle).
'car'+'la'='CARLA'
'takes' is the link.
(Another definition for carla that I've seen is " Name of woman".)
I've seen this clue in The Sun.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
