So what happens to the cars confiscated?
Do the owners ever get em back or the cops sell em for revenue?

Depends if it's a repeat offence.
I think the final confiscation equals loss of vehicle ... gets sold and Police Force keep the cash. Holding yards will be making a fortune ... and so will tow truck drivers
