A VERY UNUSUAL car just popped up on a list judged by Hagerty to be among the most collectable of the past 25 years still available for under £25,000: the Zenos E10R. It was the most powerful iteration of the original E10, a car built from 2015 to 2016 in Norfolk and designed to be the spiritual successor to the affordable, pared-down, high-performance roadsters that had been built nearby at Lotus.
