        This is from wikipedia: Avengers TV series

Another memorable feature of the show from this point onwards was its
automobiles. Steed's signature cars were vintage 1926-1928 Bentley racing or
town cars, including Blower Bentleys and Bentley Speed Sixes, while Peel
drove a sporty Lotus Elan convertible which, like her clothes, emphasized
her independence and vitality. During the first Peel series, each episode
would end with a short, comedic scene of the duo leaving the scene of their
most recent adventure in some unusual vehicle.


Vehicle wise, while Steed continued to drive vintage Bentleys, Mother was
transported in Rolls-Royce cars and Tara King preferred an AC 428 and a
Lotus Europa (some of this had already begun in the Gale episodes, as Gale
occasionally used a Triumph motorcycle).

I think you'll find that Steed's car was an early Vauxhaul.
