Rust is a huge factor. It will ruin your driveway and garage. When the cart gets wet the rust dissolves, drips off the car and stains whatever is underneath.
I bought a used cart without realizing the rust problems. In particular, look for rusted battery trays. Maybe take a mirror with you when you look at cars so you can get a peek underneath. Also, look at where the car is parked to see if you see any rust stains (or pads that cover them up).
I don't think I would buy another used cart from a private party, particularly if you don't have some expertise in evaluating the cart. If I was going to do it again, and wanted an inexpensive cart, I would go with one of the used cart dealers on 441, and just make sure that you get at least a 90 day cart exchange if you are not satisfied with your purchase.
