Motor tax in the UK

Just out of curiosity. If somebody in the UK buys a car - how long do they have to tax it? If a previous owner failed to declare it off the road or tax it - are they liable?

You buy the tax when you buy the car, no grace period

They have an app and you are expected to use it before driving off.
