A friend had a exhaust routed up the back of a double cab pickup, one problem with that though was where the load linermeleted where it touched the exhuast. Some form of heat shileding may be useful.

Will be fine for MOT unless it burns tester then they get a bit narked !
Johny law tends to ignore them unless a complaint against your vehicle is made.
