I would say the exhaust pipe - but I did have a good clue!!   ;D

Sounds a tad throaty and a slight pop on the overrun.  Exhaust leak, possibly....  ;)

Need more guesses than this, I bet you can't get it, it's unbelieveable a sound can come from such a thing ;D  ;D :D

So if I said this came from a 1.9 CDTi Astra Van would you call me mad?

It sounds better in 'real life', this exhaust will be on my van (I know this is a midlife crisis with a van, but this is what I'm spending the cash on at the moment) within the next two weeks  :D :D

well over the computer you never get a good sense anyway(don't get me wrong in any way i've seen the photos of your van and i am certainly not saying that it's chavish in any way or form it is one good looking motor) but tbh i'm not a fan of loud exhausts but the popping i must admit i could live with! quite racey!

I'm not even 30 yet, and that to me sounds like something a 17yr old would stick on their 106 Quicksilver.

Each to their own, but definitely not for me.

It does sound a lot different in real life, I'll have to do a good video, it's currently on my mate Andy's van, but he's getting a side exit exhaust fitted so this is coming with me :)
