My answer would be, the DVLA won't know it has changed hands until a few days later when they receive the v5.

So if the seller posts the v5 off the same day you've still got time to get it home and then SORN it with the new owners slip before it hits the DVLA offices.

Obviously i'm not sure what Mr Plod would think of this if he stopped you on the way home, but the vehicle would still technically be taxed in the eyes of the DVLA computers.
