Well, last night I played around with the height adjuster of the Gear Selector. After much messing I actually ended up disconnecting it and reconnecting it. Didn't seem in a vastly different location, however, much to my surprise and excitement this morning, I now have a 6th gear!
All I can assume is that prior to me purchasing it the lever had been moved to such an extent that there wasn't the movement available to push the actual gear selector into 6th. Either way, needless to say, I'm both ecstatic at having all the gears I was expected and also feeling like a complete tool for not doing this before posting on the forum.
Hopefully, should anyone else be unfortunate enough to have a similar problem, they'll see this and save themselves the embarrassment.
Thanks for all the advice people and if nothing else I hope I provided some entertainment
I'm now off to ride around in 6th at completely inappropriate times, just because I can!
