Try searching for interviews from that era.

My guess:

A sampler
Sample CDS
Maybe a Korg Triton or Roland JV1080 or 2080

My guess is this too, I doubt he would have used a VST, Garage is MUCH more sample based than you would think, even if you already thought it was... (@ OP) VST's weren't used as much back then, it was cheaper to sample a Rhode chord or whatever and place it into a sampler...
I reckon he probably used Kontakt 1 as it was around the same era that and Recycle were well in their prime and a lot of Garage producers are still using those two pieces of software for sampling, even though there's been numerous updates...
MJ Cole is a classically trained musician so he probably has vast amounts of classical CD's he can sample from. You never know, it's possible he knows an orchestra and recorded the samples himself!
They're all reversed as well so it could have been from anything really, it's hard to tell...
