It shouldn`t make any strange noises as far as i know.
Did your car have twin exit tail pipes before the exhaust
change.I know that the 200 vi was the prototype for the Zr
range and was quite a powerful little beast at the time.
Maybe kwik fit thought it was just a rover 200 and fitted the
standard exhaust to it not knowing it was the 200vi model.
The 200vi puts out about 146bhp i think.

give it a couple of weeks and if it doesnt go away take it back i had the same with one and did it for 1000 miles then i took it back and they said there was a fault with it, but a little noise for a short while is apparantly normal

i had the same thing on a citroen with a replacement, i went back,they said it would quiet down, it never did, it turned out to be a cheap aftermarket back box with near no baffles, they never did change it.
