Tom Denton's book provides all the underpinning knowledge (UPK) required for an NVQ level 2 in Vehicle Mechanical and Electronic Systems. The text highlights Key Words and Learning Tasks to help understanding of all the important issues. Completion of the Learning Tasks is an ideal way of building evidence for inclusion in portfolios. Lots of diagrams, photos and tables are used, making the book easy to use. Most of the text covers motor vehicle technology, but detail about the industry and motor vehicle companies is also included.
