   why are insurance company not sorting out?
   
   first thing to do is pay the holding fees and get the car back to your house.
   
   from there you can assess things easier and more calmly.

   Why aren't the insurance paying out? When i flipped my car, they paid for the recovery and holding fee's and then paid out for the car. The main thing is that your ok, car's can be replaced.

   bad luck m8, get the car back soon as because they will rack up storage fees. When you are well its prob best to sell parts off it.
   
   Hint- if you used standard wheels and tyres if dont flip so easy

   Third party cover wont pay out except to third parties involved in the accident.
   
   Get the car out of storage ASAP to avoid fees.
   Get it back to your place and if there's anything worth selling on the car, sell all parts and scrap the rest. Put the money towards any costs etc.
