Numberplates aren't just numberplates - there are subtle variences and styles according to age.
Put the wrong one on and it's blindingly obvious.  The number of times I've seen proud US owners with a yellow plate on the front is worrying...

 

I get mine from here - https://www.tippersvintageplates.co.uk/ and they have a decent selection of everything. 
Not the cheapest, but you absolutely get what you pay for.

Hugh, thanks for the triple C recommend. I've ordered from Philip in the past. I just ordered the British Tags with him now. It was too much of a hassel with the British companies as they want the V5#s and proof of ownership.  Philip says hello. J

Triple C has them, and they are here in the US. Phil is a good guy and also is a Mini owner. https://triple-c.com/Products.cfm?pa=List&zsb=0&zhcb=1&psearch=plate

Hi Jim, coincidentally, a few days ago I saw that some guy in the UK was making them to whatever license plate number you wanted, even going back to the old B & W ones. I'll do some digging to see if I kept a link.

Regards, Martin.

Does anyone know where I can buy some Reflective British or European Style License Plates? The long type. Roughly 4.5 high by 20.5 inches long. Prefer a black border, does not have to embossed. I prefer reflective plates.  I'm looking on eBay at the moment. Thanks Jim
