Why not check with your realtor? They have access to who's selling what.

Just remember that whenever you're buying anything used spend more time learning about the owner than the vehicle. The story for selling and for caring for the machine are more important than some other details. If it all falls in line I would buy a gas, fuel injected, no problems with either one. Don't listen to all the hunk and bunk about carburetors and gas issues. They're easy to maintain as long as you're proactive it's simple. Good luck! |

Bought reconditioned/re-manufactured 2014 Yamaha fuel injected in 2016 from Village Discount Golf Cart.
Extensive choices of options. 5 year guarantee. Excellent after service follow up. |

Pro golfers playing in PGA Tour events walk the course...they do not use carts.

Golf Cars are a hot commodity right now. Used carts in good condition and a fair price sell very quickly. As of last Saturday, Villages Golf Cars had exactly ZERO used carts in stock. An order placed with them now for either a reconditioned or brand new cart has a delivery date in mid-January. That compares to 6-7 weeks for a new cart ordered last year. If you find a used cart that strikes your fancy, act quick...chances are it won't be around long. |

Yes, but I'm sure the cost of that rental is figured into their price, don't you think?

Just make sure you research what you are getting. We moved to The Villages in mid June. I knew I wanted Gas powered and narrowed that down to a Yamaha Quietech before we even moved here because of my research. I also wanted the Yamaha 'Y' suspension system to smooth out the ride. Sticker Shock on the new Yamaha models stunned me to say the least. I migrated over to the used row and the price was still more than I expected to pay for new. Wife ignored me, sat down with the salesmen, and wrote out a check for a new one she thought had a 'pretty' paint scheme. We love our new Yamaha, but I break out in sweats when I think about what we paid for it. lol

I guarantee that it is "included". The Villages sell their new golf cars for over $1,000 more than the other licensed Yamaha dealers in the area. Check it out; we did.

I am very mechanically inclined and initially had concerns about buying a reconditioned cart. They don't open the motor up, but do a compression test which will show a 'worn out' motor but may still hide some significant wear. That said, we went reconditioned because of price and besides the motor internals, it basically is a new cart including clutches rear end drive, etc. Time will tell if we made the right decision or not, but I'm fairly confident we did at least for us.
