For this spec a std pump is fine, more than enough, contact Matt Lewis, it is under £100 from him, and he has them in stock normnally.
If you haven't already done so, I would suggest rewiring the fuel pump circuit, and the fan circuit.
Apply 12v to the pump direct from a battery/starter pack etc to see if it has any life as it could be something else stopping it, doesn't matter which way round the wires go on to check, as if wrong way it will just spin the other way, but show that it's working, no noise obviously dead as a dodo.
Just ask Matt Lewis for a 941 pump, the normal uprate, which you don't need is a 044, or called "group a".

Mine cost £10 second hand, off here I think. It's lasted 5 years and still going strong

Inertia cut out is under the spare wheel, has a white button that pops up if tripped, simply depress to reset.

Would of suggested that when the OP was replied to but diden't bother as the car is 3DR and they never had intertia switches.

Also fuel pump relay is under dash on passenger side I think it's yellow in colour.
