To tax your car online the system checks the mot and insurance databases to see if both are valid, your insurance isn't so you won't get it.

As above. However, if you buy your tax on-line the day the insurance is valid you will have 5 days grace while waiting for the tax disc.

They check the MID for the insurance status of the vehicle, dont forget it takes a few days for the vehicle to be added to the MID so wont be able to do it the day you insure it, i swapped my insurance over to my cav on thursday and it still wasnt listed on the MID when i checked yesterday, yet the vectra still was!
