Dutch Rapper’s Cybertruck Deal Leaves dealer in the Lurch
Table of Contents
A whirlwind of confusion surrounds the purchase of a Tesla Cybertruck by Dutch rapper and influencer Kosso (real name Albert Dervishaj). While Kosso boasts on social media about his nearly $220,000 purchase from Du Parc dealership in Oisterwijk, Netherlands, and even showcases the vehicle in videos filmed in Albania, the dealership claims the rapper hasn’t fully paid for the truck, and the Cybertruck he’s been driving isn’t the one they sold.
The story unfolds with Kosso, 28, claiming to have purchased the first Dutch Tesla Cybertruck. He posted videos online documenting the vehicle’s registration in Albania, as it couldn’t be registered in the Netherlands. However, the Cybertruck displayed in these videos isn’t the one sitting at Du Parc, hidden behind a shed and currently listed for sale.
A Du parc employee, initially denying the discrepancy, later admitted the truth after being presented with photos of the unsold Cybertruck being circulated to potential buyers. The issue, according to the employee, boils down to finances. While Kosso publicly declared a complete purchase, only a down payment was made.”People used to buy a car and pay immediately, but that is no longer the case,” the employee stated, adding that Kosso failed to pay the remaining balance after nearly two weeks. This leaves the dealership in a peculiar situation: “The car has in principle been sold,but it is indeed still for sale.”
The mystery deepens. What vehicle did Kosso drive in Albania? and what about the Cybertruck prominently featured in his Limburg villa’s driveway? The Du Parc employee commented, “He got one from somewhere else,” acknowledging the uncertainty surrounding the situation.
“There is so much chatter online,”
Kosso responded to inquiries, claiming he did purchase the truck from du Parc and drove it away. He offered no description for the dealership’s emails to potential buyers showcasing the same Cybertruck. He dismissed social media reports of sightings of the vehicle, stating, “There is so much chatter online.” He denied owning a second Cybertruck before abruptly ending the conversation: “I have to hang up, I have an interview with RTL News.”
Rob de Koster, owner of Du Parc, expressed disappointment over the controversy: “It will be a very messy story this way.” However, he remains confident Kosso will eventually settle the outstanding payment. He explained his employee’s statement about the Cybertruck being for sale, stating that Du Parc can always supply another one if a customer is interested. ”It’s a production car,right? We can get it.”

Rapper’s Cybertruck Controversy: Is There More to the Story?
A recent social media frenzy erupted around Dutch rapper Kosso and his claimed purchase of a Tesla Cybertruck. While boasting about his acquisition online, a discrepancy between his claims and the dealership’s account has created a cloud of confusion. Is this simply a misunderstanding, or is there more to the story? We sat down with automotive industry legal expert, Samantha Hayes, to dissect the situation and shed light on the legal and ethical implications.
Confusing Claims and Contradictory Statements
Editor: Samantha, can you offer your outlook on the conflicting narratives surrounding Kosso’s Cybertruck purchase?
Samantha Hayes: This situation is certainly bizarre. On one hand, we have Kosso publicly celebrating his apparent ownership of the Cybertruck, even showcasing it in videos from Albania. Conversely, the dealership insists only a down payment was made and the truck remains technically for sale. Such conflicting statements from both parties raise serious questions.
Editor: Could Kosso have purchased another Cybertruck? It seems the dealership’s vehicle displayed a specific VIN, which doesn’t match the one Kosso supposedly drives.
Samantha Hayes: That’s where things get even murkier. It’s highly unusual for someone to claim ownership of a vehicle they legally haven’t purchased. Perhaps there are financial arrangements we’re not privy to, or maybe Kosso is indeed driving a different Cybertruck altogether. The lack of transparency fuels speculation.
Legal Ramifications and Financial Disputes
Editor: What are the potential legal ramifications for both parties involved?
Samantha Hayes: For kosso, if he hasn’t fulfilled his financial obligation to the dealership, he could face legal action for breach of contract. The dealership could also sue for damages stemming from the unpaid balance.
Editor: What about the dealership’s obligation in this situation?
Samantha Hayes: The dealership could face scrutiny for potentially misleading potential buyers by showcasing a vehicle that’s technically already “sold.” Though, they could argue that they were operating under the assumption that Kosso would complete the purchase, and thus, continued marketing the vehicle as available.
The Impact on Reputation and Brand Image
Editor: This controversy has certainly caught public attention. How might this impact both Kosso’s and the dealership’s reputation?
Samantha Hayes: This situation has undoubtedly tarnished both parties’ image to some extent.For Kosso, his credibility as an influencer and artist might be questioned. As for the dealership, they might face criticism for seemingly unprofessional communication and potential transparency issues.
Editor: Do you think this case has broader implications for the industry as a whole?
Samantha Hayes: This situation highlights the importance of clear communication and transparent financial agreements in high-value purchases,especially when public figures are involved. It also emphasizes the need for both buyers and sellers to understand their rights and obligations.
