Selling a Star EV in Hermanus
Established value brand (JH Global). Sirius and Capella are the current LSV models. Hermanus Golf Club, Fernkloof, Onrus and the Voëlklip beachfront — retirement and holiday carts collected on our regular Overberg run.
Lithium Star EVs are the everyday golf estate cart across Western Cape. In Hermanus they're priced almost entirely on the battery — a factory lithium pack can be worth more than the rest of the cart — plus the rear seat, lights and charger. Lead-acid Star EVs are priced on the age of the pack.
Retirement-village carts are usually the easiest sale of all: one careful owner, short trips, garaged, serviced. If you're helping a parent sell, we'll deal with you directly, keep the paperwork simple and pay by EFT before we drive away — no cash, no strangers at the door.
What we pay for Star EVs in Hermanus
Used Star EVs in Western Cape typically sell for R20 000 – R180 000 (private-sale bands, updated 2026-09-01). For Star EV specifically, these are the things that move the number:
- Value retention is below Club Car/Yamaha; lithium and low hours are the main price drivers.
- 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

Questions sellers ask
How much is a Star EV golf cart worth in Hermanus?

How quickly can you collect a Star EV in Hermanus?
Usually within a week of accepting. We collect across the Cape every week; Hermanus collections are normally booked within a week of the offer being accepted.
Do you buy Star EVs that need batteries?
Yes — we refurbish carts, so a Star EV with a tired pack is still worth real money. The offer allows for the new pack; lithium Star EVs fetch a premium.
Do you buy golf carts that aren't running?
We do. Non-runners are a big part of what we buy around Hermanus, because we refurbish and resell carts ourselves. A cart with a tired lead-acid pack is still worth real money to us — the offer just allows for the new pack.
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.
