It's no big deal really if you can do it instantly online.
In any event, even if you don't get the tax straight away it'll still show as taxed on the database until the former owner sends in the V5 so you'll be fine on the digital front. The only problem would be if you could get stopped by an analogue police officer. That's unlikely as there won't be any traffic officers soon and whatever police service is left will be busy doing social work for the feckless.

So what is the rule about insurance before September 30th? Not clear to me yet what are the limits. Want to keep it legal. I am collecting mid-September so miss the stricter rule fortunately

No changes coming on the insurance front. Your vehicle must be either Taxed or SORNed (declared off road). If it's taxed, it must be insured.
