Congrats!! Are you looking for the travel system type car seats? In my experience it has been easiest to get a car seat in and out through the boot by folding down the seat on the other side. IMO your best bet is to go to Babies R Us or something similar and ask if you can try out the models you're looking at and see if they fit in your MINI.
Currently I use a 3-in-1 seat and I can remove it easily via the boot.

I have a Britax Marathon 70 seat and actually got rid of my R56 and bought a R60 and had lots of room with the rear facing seat and when my son was old enough to have it facing forwards, there was even more room. Now I actually got rid of the R60 and back to an R56 with his seat facing forwards. All depends on how tight the passenger wants to be in the car because you will find with a rear facing baby seat that your passenger seat will be all the way up.
