Your Drive (G29) in St Francis Bay: what it's worth here
The first-generation Drive is the Yamaha we see most. Fuel-injected from 2013, with a 48-volt electric that just keeps going. St Francis Links, the canals and Cape St Francis — a lot of carts, a lot of salt. We know what they're worth.
Yamaha petrol carts are the pick for the long or hilly runs around St Francis Bay, where charging is a hassle and range matters; demand for QuieTech and Drive2 petrol carts here is steady all year. Electric Yamahas are priced on battery age like any other cart.
Holiday-home carts are a special case: they sit for months, then get used hard for three weeks. Batteries left flat over winter are the usual casualty. We're used to collections from second homes in St Francis Bay — we can coordinate with a neighbour, a caretaker or the golf estate office, and you sign and get paid from wherever you happen to be.

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.
