Hey crowdog. The problems you are reading about on other sites are they regarding MINIs in general or this specific generation of MINI? Definitely poke around here to get a sense of any common issues. This forum is an excellent resource and I would say is fairly balanced in terms of opinion. Sure people here love their car, but you'll see just about every problem here as well which is nice since usually you'll see a problem pop up before dealers even notice it.
Dromedary is right though, the best thing is to drive it and compare it to other cars you're interested in. Honestly, if you're leasing the car long-term reliability isn't really a big deal since you will only have the car for a few years and all maintenance/repair will be covered by the dealer.
