Exhaust popping on the overun.

[PEAK JCWGP]

This happens all the time on my GP.

Leaking exhaust or normal behaviour for the car?

Normal behavior for the GP and S's

Did you not test drive the car before you brought it

[Tigger, Eeyore & Roo]

Mine seems to be popping more all the time. Love it What do I need a radio/CD for anyway?

Now the good weather's here, just wind the window down and enjoy it even more!

Even with a decent sound system, I find I use the mute button a lot so I can enjoy the car

Nope.
If a car is new, or nearly new, hence fully factory warranted, i often buy without driving. I just do the important research first to make sure i want one.
The GP is my 99th car.

Just to be clear, is that 99th this week, or the total figure?

[Robboc]

Its a marvelous part of the car I find. Since I have had a reroute pipe done by GTT on the exhaust it sounds even better. I hear a free flowing manifold also helps increase pop.

[Richard Crofts]

Feature of the car ... mainly the S but coopers and ONEs do it too.

[s33gav]

try fitting a gtt manifold and then hear some serious popping, great fun
