Not fully with you Frisket. (?) If the new loo needs to made into an "S"
trap outlet then buy an extended outlet fitting for it.

I take it you're meaning that the outlet from the old loo turns and goes
down toward the floor and into the existing soil pipe. (?) This would be
called an "S" Trap outlet. The outlet pipe of the new pan comes straight
out and points toward the wall at the back, this is called a "P" Trap
outlet.

You can get a plastic fitting that will convert a "P" into an "S" from any
of the DIY Stores.

Knew this wasn't going to be easy ;-)
The existing pan outlet points straight back to the wall almost at floor
level. The new one is higher but, because its close coupled it's closer to
the wall. I've got an elbow that'll drop straight down onto the soil pipe
but I need to turn the soil pipe entry to the top. Just to make things
interesting the soil pipe is 3" (like drain pipe) it comes up from the
ground floor, turns 90 degrees to the right outside on the landing (it's
boxed in), goes along the back wall of the toilet out the other side then
naffs off through the wall and up into the air to roof height. The fitting
where the pan joins the stack is like a swept "T".
Hope that's clearer - ish
