A quick google/ebay search turns up a few other things too.

Chain Reaction Cycles does bike ribbon that is a good match for 80s bar
tape. About £5 a set, I think.

couldnt find anything I liked so I've just gone for some black fizik tape instead.

That type of tape is actually called "bike ribbon". It's padded, and the plastic is softish and it's waterproof. And it had very small holes along the tape. It stays clean and is much more hard wearing than cork tape.

This might be the stuff:

but you have to see it in person to be sure.
