When BG fitted a CH pump they used flex, which does not give a good contact with the push-in type terminals on the pump.
The pump makers say
"Use heat resisting 3 x 0.75 mm2 core cable with rubber insulation rated at 110 deg C minimum."

I have not been able to find any.

Any ideas on a supplier of just 1 or 2 metres of this HR cable?

Screwfix sell it, but not in small quantities.
I have bought small lengths in the past but can't remember where. Why don't you keep a look out for an electricians van. They almost certainly would keep stocks. Failing that it might be worth while ringing someone from the yellow pages on the off chance. There must still be small companies out there who have got a shop.

Heat resisting 3 core will still be flex you can get it cut to length from a good small specialist electrical wholesaler. Ask for butyl that's what us dinosaurs call it.
