Selling an ICON in Gansbaai
The fastest-growing value brand in the US. Street-legal (LSV) from the factory with lithium options — depreciation is steeper than Club Car but demand is huge in Florida communities. Whale-coast holiday homes and the De Kelders cliffs; salt air and low hours — we price both fairly.
Near the sea, condition beats age. A five-year-old cart that has lived in a garage in Gansbaai will out-price a two-year-old one that has stood outside in the salt. We look at the battery tray, the frame rails and the brake cables in your photos, and we're honest about what the sea has done.
What we pay for ICONs in Gansbaai
Used ICONs in Western Cape typically sell for R55 000 – R180 000 (private-sale bands, updated 2026-09-01). For ICON specifically, these are the things that move the number:
- Street-legal LSV package (lights, mirrors, seatbelts, VIN) is standard — a plus for community buyers.
- Lithium models (2022+) hold value much better than early lead-acid i40s.
- Expect 30–40% depreciation in the first two years, then a flatter curve.
- Lithium 2- or 4-seater (2020+): R55 000 – R110 000 (e.g. Excar, HDK, LVTong, ICON, Evolution) — factory lithium holds value
- 6-seater / lifted / street kit: R90 000 – R180 000 (e.g. Any brand, 4+2 rear seat, lift kit, lights) — highest demand on estates

Questions sellers ask
How much is an ICON golf cart worth in Gansbaai?
Typically R55 000 – R180 000 in Western Cape, depending on the model, year, battery and condition. Street-legal LSV package (lights, mirrors, seatbelts, VIN) is standard — a plus for community buyers. Send photos and we'll price yours exactly, in writing, within 24 hours.
How quickly can you collect an ICON in Gansbaai?
Usually within a week of accepting. We collect across the Cape every week; Gansbaai collections are normally booked within a week of the offer being accepted.
Do you buy ICONs that need batteries?
Yes — we refurbish carts, so an ICON with a tired pack is still worth real money. The offer allows for the new pack; lithium ICONs fetch a premium.
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.
