Folks,
I came across https://www.coolkombi.com/. They seem to have a great collection of T1, T2 buses. I live in Texas and am interested in importing one. Has anyone bought from them? If so, can you share your experience and steps to get it registered in US (TX if i'm lucky).
Thanks

Their website has a total of four (apparently unverified) former customers providing a "recommendation."
The funny part is.... their recommendations show four reviews at once... and there's only four reviews.... but, here's the kicker. They reviews are in an auto-scroll... like you're thinking your seeing a whole bunch of reviews. Rolling Eyes

Their site says nothing about any sort of guarantee. Seems like you would be sending $ & basically getting whatever they give you, with no recourse.

You should probably read these:
