I am sure this has been asked many times - but what is the original fitment of the brake master cylinder?
Looks like Fiesta to me.

Depends what you're trying to do.

If you want to refurb, then you need to know, but if you need to replace, the easiest route is Motaclan.
I did see the servo a bit cheaper on ebay a few months after I'd replaced all my bits, but not enough to upset me...

Not sure how you managed that mate, I had to take the pedal box out.
Refitting was to have the servo and m/c + reservoir fitted together, with the hoses tightened into the m/c (hoses disconnected from the bulkhead connector block), then push all that more or less into position and then put the pedal box back in-situ to then bolt it all together, and finally tighten up the mounting bolts for the pedal box.
