18. Jensen Healey
In a desperate attempt to save the company, Jensen launched the Jensen Healey roadster in 1972. The initial response from the American buyers was good since the car was a modern take on a bit outdated MG and Triumph offerings.
Under the hood was a 2.0-liter Lotus derived engine with around 100 HP and modest performance. However, the modern design and nice stance attracted buyers. As all British cars from the `70s, the Healey had problems with rust and electrics and that is why they are cheap today. However, if you are looking for an interesting and rare car with Lotus engine, this could be it.
