I did some digging on the DVLA website, and I'm fairly sure you can just ignore it as long as you sent the slip off. If not, might be worth seeing if you can contact DVLA, but good luck because I'm certain their service is very slow these days.
I ignored it, and haven't yet had any bailiffs round, or any threatening letters.

Ah, fair enough.
I got the reminder even after having sent the slip off, which in normal times, shouldn't have happened. I suspect the reminders are computer-generated and unless a person actually enters the data to say the car has been sold/transferred/sold, then the reminders get spewed out.
If it were me, I think I'd send a recorded-delivery, arse-covering letter explaining what happened, just in case of any more old cobblers from them. Not that I don't trust government agencies, perish the thought.
My main concern is I'm moving house in the next month (if the lawyers ever get a move on) and don't really want this hanging over me. If I had to guess, I'd say this is a bit of a covid cock up, hopefully it'll get sorted.

Check the DVLA website, there should be no record of the car if it has been scrapped and they are aware it has.

They do keep a register of scrapped vehicles though
I used to work for a Debt Collection Agency that collected these penalties on behalf of DVLA. Try to contact DVLA via phone first then website before current tax expires otherwise you'll end up with more work to do to get the situation resolved! Also obtain confirmation (email or letter) from DVLA that the vehicle no longer belongs to you.
Good luck!
