Options needed for Soil Pipe/Toilet fitting.

Hi Everyone. - I'm planning a bathroom remodel, and my wife would like a solution that covers the soil pipe up if possible. However, the toilet pipe sticks out from the wall 23cm, and raises from the floor to the mid point of the pipe 21cm. The current toilet is on a plinth. Most of the toilets i've found online have at max a 185mm outlet pipe, so would need a plinth to reach 210mm, but would still have the soil pipe sticking out quite a ways.

Thoughts on options? The soil pipe is cast iron, should I cut into it to lower it down and make it closer to the wall? I have a photo but not sure how to post it as I don't see an add photo button on here
 
Very hard to determine what you can and can't do.

You will have to access the cast pie in the wall and see if you can lower it.
If you can lower it, convert it to plastic and stick that out of the wall.

Don't scrimp on the fall of the waste pipe too much -it will come back to bite you
