Big scary tax man advice

So who knew a vehicles SORN could 'run out'? Well, probably most of you did but I certainly didn't know that 4 years ago when I bought my golf.
The car was SORN when I bought it but I never received a reminder that the SORN was about to run out.
Hopefully the golfie will be back on the road by summer, so at some point she'll need taxing.
I mentioned it to the DVLA on the phone whilst getting a new logbook and they recommended writing them a letter and being honest and they're usually pretty nice about it. But on the other hand they might not even chase it up ever - I've never had any letters regarding fines or penalties or reminders. So I don't know if it's worth flagging it up incase they'd not otherwise notice. But they could also at any point issue me a fine for roughly £320…
Any advice or anyone who's had a similar problem or just taken the risk and carried on like nothing happened ?
Cheers,
Lois
