What a used Excar A1S2 is worth
In South Africa the Excar A1S2 trades between roughly R20 000 – R110 000 depending on year, power and condition. The offer we send is the exact figure we'll pay; the bands below show where the range comes from:
- Older lead-acid 2-seater (2005–2012): R20 000 – R45 000 (e.g. Club Car DS / Precedent, E-Z-GO TXT, Yamaha G22) — battery age decides it
- Lithium 2- or 4-seater (2020+): R55 000 – R110 000 (e.g. Excar, HDK, LVTong, ICON, Evolution) — factory lithium holds value
What we check on an A1S2
Every Excar A1S2 we buy gets the same look in the photos, plus the things that matter on this particular model:
- Factory LiFePO4 lithium lifts an A1S2 into the lithium price band.
- Lead-acid carts are priced on battery age and the state of the charger.
- Body plastics scratch easily; tidy bodywork helps the offer.
- Battery type and age — the single biggest factor. A dated invoice or a photo of the date stamp helps.
- Charger, keys and manual — a working charger and both keys make the cart easier to resell, and our offer stronger.
Selling your A1S2: how it works
Here's how it works: you send photos and answer a short form; we reply with a firm written offer within 24 hours; if you're happy, you accept and sign on your phone and pick a two-hour collection window. On the day we check the cart matches the photos, load it, and pay by EFT before we drive away.
We collect anywhere in South Africa with our own transport, and because we refurbish and resell carts ourselves, an A1S2 that needs batteries or a clean-up is still worth real money to us.

Questions sellers ask
How much is an Excar A1S2 worth?
Typically R20 000 – R110 000 for a private sale in South Africa, depending on year, power (lead-acid or lithium), seats and condition. Factory LiFePO4 lithium lifts an A1S2 into the lithium price band. Send photos for an exact written offer within 24 hours.
Do you buy an A1S2 that isn't running?
Yes. Dead batteries, charger faults, controller problems — we buy A1S2s in any condition and the offer simply reflects the repair. Photograph the battery pack and tell us what's wrong.
Is a lithium A1S2 worth more?
Yes — factory lithium (or a documented conversion) is the single biggest value driver on an A1S2. It can be worth a third more than the same cart on lead-acid, because the next owner isn't facing a new pack.
Do you buy golf carts that aren't running?
Yes. Dead batteries, a faulty charger, a controller fault, a cart that has stood for two years — we buy all of them. The offer simply reflects the repair cost. Tell us what's wrong in the form and photograph the battery pack; that's usually all we need.
Is the offer really free, and do I have to accept it?
Yes and no. The offer is free and there's no obligation at all — it's a firm number, valid for seven days, and you can accept, counter or walk away. We'd rather you took our number to compare than felt pressured.
What do I need on the day of collection?
Your ID, the charger and keys, and the cart where we can load it. We check that it matches your photos, sign off the sale agreement you already signed on your phone, and pay by EFT before we drive away. If the cart lives behind a gate, let security know we're coming or send us a visitor code with your booking.
