Hi, need some input if this is normal. When you step onto the accelerator (DS mode) there tends to have some sway force (mainly forcing the steering to the left) feeling on the steering. Is that normal?
My manual does this but you get used to it just a bit off putting when you reach to change gear leaving one hand on the wheel. Makes for a bit of excitement
Yeah - if I turn left out of a junction onto a main road, it'll sometimes try to carry on going left and stick me in the hedge; it's a beast. Two hands on the wheel at all times unless stuck on the motorway.

All MINIs are equal, but some are more equal than others.
Had mine two weeks and noticed the same, also like the excitement as reminds me a bit of my old Focus RS (2003 model). However I am a bit surprised by how much wheel spin I get even in the dry in first and second gears when I put my foot down?!? This is with traction control permanently on :-0 In the wet its a nightmare and I just stay away from any chance of it happening. I am more than a little worried that I will be needing new from tyres in no time!!!:-((
Anyone else noticed the same or is mine just horse power crazy?!?.....
