Maybe I under sold it. It's not a 'dave have a listen to this noise' it's a full on grit your teeth and brace for impact sort of sound. Deff not something you want to re create more than you need to.

I am 36 miles away in Kidsgrove if you are heading southeast.
The Jimny back end is a knock amplifier, so it's possible it's anything mentioned so far. It's usually an easy fix, it's a Jimny!

Put your foot on the exhaust tail pipe and move it about a fair amount to see if you can replicate it.

The back box is the tightest fitting part of the exhaust.
