Maccauvlei: what to expect
Maccauvlei carts are exactly what we buy most: garaged, low-hours, usually with the extras the next owner wants. Because we resell within the same golf estate more often than not, our offers here are strong. Tell us whether the cart meets the golf estate's speed and lighting rules — that's worth money.
The process is the same wherever you are: photos and a few details from your phone, a written offer within 24 hours, then accept, sign and book a collection slot online. We arrive with our own transport and pay by EFT before we drive away. No viewings, no time-wasters, no transport to arrange.
Our Gauteng team is in the Maccauvlei area every week — collections are normally booked within seven days of the offer being accepted.
What Maccauvlei carts are worth
Most private carts we buy at Maccauvlei fall between R40 000 – R180 000, with lithium four- and six-seaters at the top. These are typical private-sale bands (updated 2026-09-01); the offer we send is the exact figure we'll pay.
Waterfront carts in Maccauvlei tend to be low-hours and high-spec — a rear seat, a cooler, big tyres. They're in demand. And because we also buy boats, jet skis and trailers, one form covers the lot.
Most of the carts we buy around Maccauvlei come off golf estates, and most of them go straight back onto one. That's the whole reason we can pay well here: there is always a family on the next street who needs a four-seater. Tell us which golf estate the cart lives on and whether it meets the golf estate's speed and lighting rules — it helps us price it exactly.
- Mainstream lead-acid (2013–2019): R40 000 – R75 000 (e.g. Club Car Precedent, E-Z-GO RXV, Yamaha Drive)
- Premium lithium 4-seater (2019+): R85 000 – R150 000 (e.g. Club Car Onward / Tempo, E-Z-GO RXV ELiTE, Yamaha Drive2)
- 6-seater / lifted / street kit: R90 000 – R180 000 (e.g. Any brand, 4+2 rear seat, lift kit, lights) — highest demand on estates
What we look at in your photos
Six phone photos are enough — front, back, both sides, the seats and the battery pack. From those we can see almost everything that sets the price:
- Extras — rear flip seat, lights, lift kit, sound system, enclosure. Tidy factory-style extras add real value.
- Body, seats and canopy — cracks, sun damage and torn seats all cost money to put right.
- 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.

Questions sellers ask
Do I need to arrange access for you at Maccauvlei?
Just let the gate or the office know WeBuyCarts is collecting on the day, or send us a visitor code with your booking. Our drivers are used to golf estate procedures.
How soon can you collect at Maccauvlei?
Usually within 7 days of accepting. Our Gauteng team is in the Maccauvlei area every week — collections are normally booked within seven days of the offer being accepted.
I'm selling my Maccauvlei home — can you take the cart before transfer?
Yes, that's one of the most common reasons people sell to us. Book a collection slot before your move-out date and we'll pay on the day; the buyer of your home can start fresh with their own cart.
Can you buy my boat or jet ski at the same time?
Yes. Submit each item separately in the form (it takes a minute each) and we'll send one offer per item and collect everything on the same day.
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.
