The idea of buying a used golf cart means that either you have limited budget or you want to use the golf cart for a short time. Used golf carts certainly cost you a lot less than the new ones. But, they can cost you a hell, if you buy the wrong one that needs constant repairs and replacement of parts. If you survey the market, you may across two possible types of used golf carts- ‘the used’ and ‘the refurbished’. If you purchase the used golf cart on “sold as is” conditions it means that you are satisfied with the cart. It is understood that you have accepted to pay for the cart and end the transaction there. The owner cannot be held responsible for any defect or problem in the cart. Usually the owners would explain to you if there is any problem. If the owner has taken good care of the golf cart in terms of up-keep, usage and maintenance, then you are fortunate to buy such a cart from the owner.
‘Refurbished’ means that an authorized dealer or technician has inspected the cart. Worn out parts are checked and replaced. General inspection and maintenance are performed and then sold. They generally carry a warranty for a moderate period after the sale. Refurbished golf carts are a sort of overhauled vehicles and usually they serve their term well without any problem. They are slightly more expensive than the ‘sold as is’ used carts.
When you are buying a used golf cart, you will have to be extra careful about several factors.
- Choose between gas driven and electric powered golf cart.
- Inspect as to how much repair the cart would need immediately, in terms of money and time.
- List items to be repaired and replaced.
- Check the status of battery. It is crucial to inspect each battery. If battery replacement is necessary, a new cart would be a better option.
- Check the battery cables and clamps and ensure that they are not damaged.
- Make sure that the body is in good condition, rust free and not damaged. A few dents here and there and minor scratches are alright but the body must be without damage.
- Tires are another expensive item. If tire replacement becomes necessary, the deal is not worth the money.
Having decided on the cart to purchase, you can concentrate on personalizing your golf cart. You can make a list of accessories that make your it look good and perform well.
- Depending on the terrains that you intend negotiating, you can customize your tires. You have a wide choice of personalizing your wheels. Simple tread is alright for level grounds and golf courses, but mountainous regions and camp sites certainly need a lot of tread.
- Selection of bumpers and brush guards is always on the basis of the amount of protection you are looking at.
- You can repair and restyle the golf cart with accessories such as seats, covers, windshields, signals, lights, radio and many more to make your golf cart look elegant and great.
