cant tax a car

so the vehicle owner moves house but does not change the V5 details.
Tax reminder goes to old address but does not get to new address
before tax runs out

No V5 as it is lost, tax reminder letter over a month old so cannot be used, tax now out of date and car cannot be taxed.

Irrespective has what has already happened, what a silly position to be in, you want to tax the car but DVLA wont let you.
If you drive the car with no tax, you may get nicked. I think new v5 applied for

Why not let a car be taxed using registration number and VIN number?
