GoKart is Magic Brand of 2008

Nov 01 2008

The website Golfmagic.com (the liveliest online golf forum in the UK) recently held their annual awards. When we were nominated for ‘Best Brand’, up against some of the big boys (Nike, Callaway, Taylormade etc), we were delighted to bits. Then we heard we’d won and our delightedness reached another level. Bourbon biscuits were purchased.

Awards are great, we have some nice bits and pieces on our mantelpiece already and we polish them religiously, but an award decided by golfers is a different beastie. We’d like to thank all the members of Golfmagic.com who put in their penniworth for us. We’re grateful and we wear our rosette with pride.

The only trouble is, everyone here at the GoKart factory is grinning so much at the moment it’s really hard to drink coffee, and production is starting to slip. So if you order a trolley and it doesn’t get delivered as fast as usual, blame Golfmagic.com

    Congratulations GoKart. I’ve known that you are a magic brand for the past two years that I’ve had my GK. Every time I need to contact you for anything, be it the redesigned front wheel, or replacement card covers, you’ve been more on the ball than Ronaldo. I can’t praise you lot enough. I’m so glad I bought a GoKart and can’t wait to have enough spare cash to raid the store for a bag, trolley carrier, brolly holder and maybe even the seat if I need a little rest after all that spending.
    Keep up the great work, and good luck to everyone there.
    Mark.

    Pleased as punch that you gained this award – well deserved. It just shows what can be done with staff who are almost human!!

  • 15. Merv Sims Says:

    Well done Go Kart – I managed 36 holes on Saturday (without a break) and my trusty ’steed’ did it comfortably on the 18 hole battery. More amazing was that my bag was heavily laden with chocolate bars and a hip flask of home made Raspberry Vodka! Yummy.

    Thank you for a great product and for the excellent support you give us all – Merry Chrimbo and very best wushes for 2009 (wushes? must be the Vodka again….soz)

    Well done to you. The only thing I would say is that I have always thought that you spared no expense, yet Bourbon? thought you might have stretched to Gipsy Creams

  • 11. Phil C Says:

    Congratulations. I cant say enough good things about your company & product. I was recommended to you when I nearly bought a competitors offering that would have been double the cost of your kart. Love it. Looking forward to the new wheels all round. I have put another couple of friends on to you. Whats your commision rate!!?

    I was absolutely chuffed to bits to hear of your well deserved award.
    All of you, & I do mean ALL of you, from the bourbons biscuit tin filler to the car park sweeper. What a fun company with a terrific sense of humour & a product that beats the big boys. Your website & your customer service is second to none.
    Have a great Christmas & an even better 2009!

    Congratulations! well deserved I’ve had my GoKart for 10 months and it has never let me down as well as being admired in the car park.

  • 8. Merv Sims Says:

    How about develping a hand warmer for these chlly days? It could clip on the existing handle and draw some current from the battery no?

    It’s Wednesday now and my pinkies are just thawed out enough to type…brrrrrrrrr

  • 7. GoKart Says:

    Hi Heather,
    When the battery cover is dropped into the frame, that’s all that needs to be done – the battery is connected. It’s devilishly simple.
    The handle height is 945mm from the ground. I think you’ll find it’s very comfortable. But of course, if you did order a GoKart and it wasn’t entirely perfect for fit, then we’d collect it and refund you.

  • 6. heather anderson Says:

    on the video i cannot see how the power is connected after the battery isis attached olso what is the height of the handle from the ground this is important to me as i im only 5ft i presume thi comes with a battery charger

  • 5. GoKart Says:

    Phil, thank you. We’re very happy about this.
    Regarding ‘the other things’, no dates I’m afraid, but we’ll let you know as soon as possible.

  • 4. Phil B Says:

    Congratulations on your award, you really deserve it!!
    *Whispers quietly* any news on the brolley, wheels & new front wheel assembly?!!

  • 3. Chris Nichol Says:

    Just a line to say how very pleased I am with the service I have received from Go Cart .You may be able to buy a cheaper model made in China but the back up from Go Cart is second to none. Many Thanks. Chris Nichol.

    GoKart Company policy; dark chocolate is deemed to be almost healthy and thereby contravenes section three of the Indulgence at Work Act. We’re very cautious in this area as last season we had our doughnuts checked and narrowly missed prosecution. Probably safer to stick with the bourbons.

    As usual you spoil us users but please can I have a dark chocolate wholemeal instead.
