Torque steer on Mini's is horrible. Try making a right hand turn from a stop with traffic coming in a Mini and then pray you actually get some traction. I have a Clubman S and although it handles great you can not get the tires (even new tires) to not spin like crazy. I feel like my life is at stake every time I have to excellerate quickly from a stop. I have rented a lot of front wheel drive cars and they just can't equal the feel and confidence of rear wheel drive.
