Less problems than using a non-mid engined donor as the gearshift will already be sorted and the parts engineered appropriately. Wheel track might mean you need to shorten the driveshafts though, but most donors for mini transplants have the same problem.

It's been done with a Metro/Rover100 with flared arches.
