We have a four seater gas Yamaha and a two seater electric Par car and we bought each from the owner. We have had the gas one for seven years and I think that makes it about ten years old and the other we have had for a couple of year and it would make it four years old.

My husband is kind of savvy with cars and he found them advertised in the paper. We had the four seater spruced up with new curtains, seatcovers and plastic "wrap".

We like both, but if forced to choose between gas and electric, I would choose gas, simply because it is more dependable. Although our Par car only stopped once and once battery was replaced, (or batteries) we have't had a pause.

If you are car savvy, there are good carts available, sometimes the owners have moved on to the Village of Heavenly.
