One thing to look for when deciding to buy a used or refurbished cart is how many running hours are actually on the cart. In 2014 and later years, the Yamaha PTV model, the ones that were sold by The Villages Golf Cart stores, came with a factory hour meter. If you are looking at a Yamaha cart that is 2014 or newer, and it does not have this meter then you know it was what was called a fleet cart, one that was probably used on a golf course. Personally, I would stay away from those as we all know they get very hard use.
Lastly, the term refurbished/reconditioned can mean anything from new tires to a major chassis rebuild. Know what you're buying. I have no dog in the fight, but I do happen to know that The Village Golf Car stores actually do a very thorough maximum job on their recon carts. Shop smart.
