Jan 19, 2012 at 2:08 comment added Cleggy It seems to have worked on my native Windows machine, but only after I prompted Windows to find drivers from Live Update, after failing to successfully install the drivers when the phone boots into Fastboot mode. Thanks for all the help. I'll mark this answer as the correct one, and will award the bounty.
Jan 19, 2012 at 1:35 comment added Mr. Buster Try a native Windows host. Also, make sure to check your Windows drivers and don't be afraid to give it a few tries.
Jan 19, 2012 at 1:32 comment added Cleggy Thanks, we're getting closer. However when I run Automatic Root Enabler (v1.1) it seems to be stuck at the waiting for device stage. The phone has initiated a reboot, but is stuck at the Huawei logo and doesn't progress from there. I'm currently attempting this on a Windows VM hosted on my Macbook Pro, so if I have no joy, I may attempt it on my daughters Windows netbook instead, just so I can rule out any VM related issues.

Jan 18, 2012 at 21:05 comment added Cleggy I'd love to accept this answer, but I've encountered these instructions already, and have been unable to find a valid download link for the Automatic Root Enabler app mentioned in the steps. Are you able to provide this information?
