Its all good fun, the hardest part is the limit of the seat travel rearwards especially if you are using bucket seats, so make sure you have them fitted to make you calculations, and that the column will be off centre.
My van was the same and you do get used to the off centre driving position.
Have a look at 365 days, may give you some ideas.
Cheers
Jason
