You do NOT need it taxed to have it NCT tested.

You do NOT need it NCT tested to get it taxed.
 
I agree, I have never been asked to produce a Vehicle Licencing Certificate or log book (for cars registered prior to mid-90s I think) for a NCT test.

As far as taxing is concerned; there should be no problems waiting for the VLC/Log Book i the post prior to taxing it
 
You don't an NCT to tax your car, but you do you need the VLC - which you should normally receive within 10 working days.
