Be careful when buying a gasoline golf cart because th previous owner may have "jacked-up" the speed control which sends MORE GASOLINE through the engine. The cart gets a higher top speed (sometimes 30 MPH) but the added fuel causes the rings, valves, and pistons to wear out faster. If you stand on the side of the road and have someone drive a used cart past you, after it is about 30 ft away from you - you can smell un-burned gasoline. Do NOT buy a golf cart like that.
