Just a guess: a Lanchester from the late twenties? Cf. eis.bris.ac.uk/~ccmjs/car_section.html, (the picture of a Talbot and a Lanchester)

Definitely not a Lanchester - the line of the top of the radiator is curved so unlike the Lanchester shape in 1920s

The engine displacement is too small for a Sunbeam of that era. Their smallest car was the 14/40 which was just over two litres.

The DVLA is well known for its inaccuracy.

Even though this 1924 Model 12/30 looks smaller than the movie car, the engine displacement is about right. http://www.classicandsportscar.ltd.uk/Sunbeam-1230-H.P-Tourer/classic-cars-sold/14091
