Thanks Rog. That HEL company is a real find. I found the website a bit overwhelming at first, but once I'd discovered the configurator, it was as easy as pie.

The standard plastic sleeving over the braiding which can be specified in a myriad of different colours is a bonus.
Having removed my old brake line, I can confirm that the fittings (on my 2012 car at least) are as follows.
Slave Cylinder Fitting:
90° Swivel Female (concave)
M10 x 1.00
Front Fitting (gearbox side of bulkhead adjacent to pedal box)
90° Swivel Female (concave)
3/8” x 24 UNF
Some caution is needed here as M10x1.0 and 3/8" UNF threads are quite similar. An M10x1.0 female fitting will fit onto a 3/8" UNF male thread (albeit a tad loose) but NOT vice versa.
The length of the line on my 2012 car was 2.5m. The replacement I've ordered is 2.8m which I'm guessing is similar to that of later cars.
The cost (including the optional express delivery) was £56 which is around half the cost from MMC.
