DAB Radio for 2001 Focus

I have a Y reg (2001) Ford Focus.  The radio for the past 6-12 months has been playing up.  All the buttons on it don't work except the OFF button.  The only way to control it is from the steering wheel thing and that controls volume + can scan up/down for stations.  A bit annoying.

 

Anyway, I am starting a new job in 6 week where I will drive 25 miles to work.  With the extra mileage I want a radio that I can get more out of.  

For example, I really would like:

AUX port for my iPhone

Ability to play MP3's on CD's

 

...

I see the DAB car radios are quite popular and found this on Halfords - http://www.halfords.com/technology/car-audio/dab-car-stereos/pioneer-deh-4700dab-car-radio

The reviews look excellent.  What is the consencus on this?  Is there any issues with this working in my old car?

 

Thanks,

Redrabbit
