OK this is a strange question but I'm getting worried - so could anyone please tell me 1. if it is something to do with a minis design or 2. Has anyone else had this feeling.?

It has happened before to a lesser degree but today I parked on a slope and when I got in to reverse out I felt like I was sloping really steeply backwards (it was only a slight slope), I felt like I was going to pass out or lose control. Clearly this is very worrying and may have to sell the car - as I have never felt this is any other cars. So any comments would be much appreciated. Thank you for your time and help. Victoria x

Have your ears checked in case you have an infection or something that would affect your balance - do you get the same effect leaning backwards in a chair?

I also have an odd thing - I avoid a particular route as at one point you turn left onto a slight hill (from the flat) and I always feel the car is going to tip over.
-- answer removed --
The exhaust is at the back of the engine as you look at it from the front, Is it leaking fumes? it the joint tight where the exhaust meets the manifold, when the car goes up a slope the engine on the Mounts go slightly to the rear of the car depending how firm the mounts are, if you rock the engine from the rocker box this will give you the insight if the mounts wants replacing in-turn possible stress on the manifold/ exhaust joint.
