You will have up until the 14th day of any month to tax the car, which you can do at a post office with the new keeper supplement, otherwise no.

You could risk it, but at that distance I wouldn't bother. There are so many camera's these days that one of them is bound to pick you up.
If it was a few miles then personally I would drive it back, but I wouldn't do that distance.
Either wait for the insurance docs to come through or phone up your insurer and get them to email them through

You dont need the insurance cert,tax the car online aslong as you have insurance.
It will check the database so you dont need the ceet. then you have taxed the car you just wont have the disk

Surely if you have changed your insurance over the Phone and you put your start date to change for today's date, you are insured ?! 
Tax then drive home

Only thing you can do if you want to get it home today is tax it online, the tax disc will be sent to the previous owner though so you'll have to agree with him in the reciept for the car that he will send the disc when it arrives.
You obv won't have a tax disc in the car but your car will be taxed.
