The Ultimate Golfer’s Car – The Garia

The £14,500 Garia Golf Car

The £14,500 Garia Golf Car

Danish maker Garia has launched a range of up-market Golf Carts which start at a mind-boggling £14,500.

I’m afraid we’d call it a Golfer’s Cart, but Garia – makers of what must surely be the most OTT golf cart in production – insist it’s a golf car. Or at least they do in all the bumph they sent us.

Keen to point out that the Garia is “manufactured at the Valmet Automotive factory in Finland, manufacturer of the Porsche Cayman and Porsche Boxster” you soon start to realise that this isn’t going to be cheap. When Garia go on to say that “…Garia features a double wishbone front suspension similar to those found in sports cars and inspired by Formula 1 cars” you just know it’s going to cost an arm and a leg.

Once they start to tell us that you can have hand-stitched seats, paint job to match your car and a built-in refrigerator you start to realise what a lucky escape you had when you gave up golf as too time-consuming.

But that still doesn’t prepare you for the fact that the Garia Golf ‘Car’ will set you back from £14,500. Or about the price of a new Volkswagen Golf.

Good Lord.
