I see them every once and a while on older cars.

Or you mean aaa-111 configuration?
The only old style plate I can think of are ceramic plates

Could it have been this one:

The morris did have faded / matte blue paint work.

It was the AAA-111 config. i think they were plates issued from 1951-1980

The AA-11-BB numberplates didn't come in until the 2000's I thought..


My brother's car is highly polished, did it myself!

So maybe there is another one kicking around

They came out in late 2002 / early 2003.
Nice paintwork on your brothers morris!
I will keep an eye out for the morris again.
