Thats certainly rubbish. I had a morris Minor as my first car ( second
hand) . It was fine.

I had two Morris Minors (the first one being a convertible!)

Both of them were definitely tail happy in the wet...and even in the
dry if pushed. Cart spring rear suspension and the 'interesting'
torsion bars at the front.


Was that more a case of the car or the driver?

Every car handles perfectly safely - if driven within its limits. It's
those limits that vary between designs. And, of course, the ability of the
driver to keep it under control if it does loose adhesion.
