Does anyone know whether you can still tax a car using a V11 reminder if you've SORNed it since the reminder?

Car tax question

Nobody?
I have recently moved and so the V5 certificate is at the DVLA for change of address, I'm wary about doing it online since I don't trust that they'll have updated their details before sending new tax discs out, so want to go into a post office and do it. I have the V11 but not sure if I can still use this if the car has been SORNed since that was issued.

Ask the post office or ring DVLA.

But I don't have the V5
well, only half of it anyhowDoes this mean I can't tax my car until I get the new V5 through

Yes, I believe that is the case

But that can take up to 4 weeks and the DVLA say not to contact them until 6 weeks - arrgghh
I see now that it says "Note: If your vehicle needs taxing within the next four weeks please take the registration certificate to the Post Office® to tax and fill in section six." But I wasn't in a position to tax the vehicle when I changed the address as it was offroad after being stolen.
Moral of the story: don't get your car stolen, let your car tax run out and move house in the same month!
