All you do is that when you sell the car you get the new owners to complete their details, change the tax class from Disabled to PLG then send it off as normal.
Ive sold all my cars like this and never had a problem.

and warn the buyer they will not be able to tax the car at the Post office with that log book

The other way is to visit the local DVLA office in person & its all done on the same day.

Of course, the downside is that you have to purchase road tax at the same time

depends how 'local' that office is
bearing in mind you would be subject ot failure to display (though it would still show as taxed)

No you wouldn't.

When you visit the DVLA office, they issue a new V5 as PLG .....then you have to purchase the tax disc like i said.

I've done it myself. I don't get where you think the *failure to display* comes in?
