There was the Amby, the Fiat (most popular) & the Herald. Later the 118NE and Contessa. All of these (save for the Herald maybe) lacked the suspension finesse and low weight of the Dolphin. The stock suspension is so well-tuned that even an inexperienced driver can hold a slide through the turn easily.
With a little more power (typically twice the original

) its an ideal drift car.
