Lower Price: Purchasing a used golf cart is almost ALWAYS cheaper. This is a major advantage for so many people shopping for a golf cart. You can save a lot of money buying used, with prices starting as low as $1,500. Used golf carts are better on your pocket all around. There are so many great used golf carts out there that have been really well taken care of over the years or have been refurbished to practically brand new. Some used and refurbished carts look and run like they’re new for half the cost! You can significantly save if you go the used route.

History/Inspection: Golf carts can last a very long time (‘70’s, 80’s, and 90’s carts are still pluggin along), so just because it’s older, doesn’t mean it’s on it’s last leg. But, just like shopping for a full sized car, you’ll want to investigate the maintenance history to make sure that the cart was well taken care of. If you’re buying an electric golf cart, you’ll want to know how old the batteries are and whether they were cared for. Also, whether the golf cart was stored well. Looking into the previous ownership is highly recommended as well. Inspect a used cart thoroughly or take someone with you that knows about golf carts to take a look for you. Take it for a test drive, listen for any noises, look out for any leaks, etc. Generally, warranties are not offered on used golf carts so you’re buying them “as is”. Ask as many questions as you can and take a good look to make sure you’re getting a good deal.

Used Accessories: Generally, a used cart will come with most of the quality, trusted parts and accessories that you’ll want, but at a much better price! Most of these parts have not changed over the years and are the same parts you would find on a brand new cart, but at a better overall cost.
