It actually pays to have an individual on the other side who you have met personally, or introduced by a friend who have met personally. I am very happy to recommend a gentleman who lives in the UK and his work is to solicit, purchase and ship on behalf, and he has never failed me nor the people I refer him to. ./Ok3ch On Wed, Dec 1, 2010 at 2:02 PM, Claire Njoki <clairenjoki@gmail.com> wrote:
Sorry to hear about that.
On a brighter side, be glad that the vehicle arrived because we once ordered 2 vehicles via kobe motors and we only received one vehicle. The kobe guys kept on saying that they were shipping the other vehicle, but they did not ship it and it took almost 8 months to get a refund of our 50% deposit. By that time the refund was wired, the value of the Ksh. had lost a bruising battle against the USD and so we had a very significant exchange loss.
100% true story.
Avoid kobe motors at all cost. You have been warned!!!!

Hi,
I recently bought a vehicle from Kobe Motors, in Japan and was very disappointed when the unit arrived. The vehicle was in pathetic state, but the images on the website had been deliberately been edited to be unclear to conceal the poor state of the unit. Anytime you find the pictures for the vehicle you intend to purchase are not clear, don’t purchase the unit, its not because they have poor camera’s to take the photos, but its deliberate, and they know very well that if you know the real state of the vehicle you wouldn’t buy it. Secondly they know that once you have received the vehicle and have already paid the duty there is very little you can do about you car, may be sell it or do the repairs.
These are some the highlights of my disappointments.
- The drivers door lock was missing – (there was a silver painted sponge covering the hole and glued this was to conceal that the lock was missing) - Both passengers rear doors were damaged, words may not explain possibly a picture which I have attached. - Sun roof was cracked - Interior was very dirty full of DOGS HAIR remains or something close to that - The driver’s seat was a bucket seat, those for rally drivers, although in the photos it was covered with a nylon paper indicating the car was very clean. - The vehicle had many scratches
Radio was also missing
Am wondering are this your standard operations or are these discrepancies concealed at the time of purchase.
I wrote this because you might be the next victim or I saw another complaint earlier in this forum somebody complaining that they got a vehicle with a faulty engine from the same company.
I have attached the interior of the vehicle to indicate all this…
