After looking at many of those mentioned, we went with Carts For Less. They remanufacture carts from the ground up to your specs, gas or electric, lots of options, 1 year warranty. Enjoying our cart, which doesn't look like the others. Very pleased with the service - and saved us about $3,000 over new. Showroom/workshop at 2281 US Hwy 441/27, Fruitland Park. 352-801-5925

I have a reconditioned 2007 Yamaha gas cart with club car doors for sale. We bought it in 2015 for a rental property. It was purchased from village's golf cart store in brownwood. It runs well has has not been used more then to run to mailbox several times a week. If interested contact me for further details.

Default Buying a Golf Cart

The Villages Golf Car in Lake Sumter Landing is the only place I would work with. And only with Mark Moderelli. He gives service after the sale and really cares about his customers.

So funny

Yep, The Villages Golf Carts are convenient and that comes at a cost.

This was my experience. I saved thousands and picked my colors, fabric and options.

My neighbor spent over 16k for his and could've got the same cart with the same options for about 12k.

I have nothing against the Villages selling golf carts and having a large territory that keeps out the competition for the Yamaha carts. They can sell them for whatever they want. They add quality parts to a great cart and I recommend them to anyone not worried about cost over convenience.
Can you share where you purchased the cart

High depreciation on a new cart. Buy a used one that was originally built and sold by Villages Golf Carts. Self canceling turn signals, easy fold up rear golf bag cover, better led lights and rear view mirrors

I just brought a new 2020 Yamaha at the Spanish Springs store, I looked outside first, prices maybe a little less, but not that much, and after I got some discounts I paid less then out side and got some things the others didn't have. I also got a Certificate from Yamaha showing I had a new 2020 cart and not an order model made to look like a new one.
Sharon Starr was my sales person I highly recommend her.

I purchased my new 2020 Yamaha from Country Village Power Equipment in Webster a couple of months ago. Worked with Steve and Carolyn. Great experience from start to finish. Saved over $3000.00 compared to the "local" dealers. Came equipped with the same "El Tigre" high back custom seats. Picked my own colors. Factory wiring. Cart was delivered to my driveway. Same Yamaha factory warranty and financing as the other dealers (they are Yamaha Factory dealer). Called them a couple of weeks ago to set up my 30 hour service. A very nice and competent mechanic came to my house and serviced the cart in my driveway for $60.00. Didn't have to leave the house or wait in line with other people. Highly recommend them, just about 20 minutes south of Fenney in Webster (across from Flea Market).
