Radio Upgrade for '14 Paceman?

I just purchased a '14 Paceman S Cooper Works and love it, just wish the controls were newer.
Wondering what kind of options I have for updating from the standard radio to what you see in the newer Minis. I'm not just referring to the radio insert but I would like to replace the whole circular speedometer display with a digital one, ideally touch screen
Thanks!

Not many options, it’s either tons of labor to be or loads of money to come off your pocket for something really irrelevant and not worth the hassle imho. Might wanna consider getting a model 3 instead for the real deal (touchscreen interface)

MarioKart has added in one, it wasn't too costly from what I remember.

When it comes to power, engine, exhaust, interior the Paceman is going to share 99% of the parts with the Countryman. Exterior will be very similar on the front end as the CM as well.
