What happens to my MOT if I SORN my car?

Basically I can't afford my road tax for a while, so i'm left with no other option but to SORN my car for a month or two until I can afford it. Does anyone know what happens to your MOT when you take your car off SORN, does it need a retest or is the certificate still valid until its expiry? Baring in mind the MOT isn't due until the 5th January.

Cheers!
Still valid.
You just can't have the car on the road even if it's left parked up on your street.

Ah cheers! No worries it'll just be up the back of the driveway!
