Owning a road legal golf buggy at a holiday home you only visit part of the year works well, as long as you have a simple routine for leaving it and coming back. The big advantage is that your transport is ready and waiting at your Spanish home, so you can get to the shops, beach and golf club from day one without arranging a hire car for every visit. With a 60–80 km range and 40 km/h top speed on the Z2 and R2, local holiday trips are easily covered.
This guide covers how to manage a buggy when you are only in Spain for part of the year. See our road legal collection.
Why have a buggy at a holiday home?
- Ready when you arrive: no waiting for a hire car or taxi for local trips.
- Short local journeys: perfect for the supermarket, beach, restaurants and golf.
- Family visits: the four-seat Z4 makes it easy when family come to stay.
- Part of the holiday feeling: an open-air buggy suits relaxed time in Spain.

What should you do before you leave Spain?
- Clean it: remove sand, dust and any food or drink from the seats and floor.
- Store it under cover: a garage is ideal; otherwise use a good-quality cover in a sheltered spot.
- Secure it: keep the key or keyless entry card somewhere safe.
- Look after the battery: the Z2 and R2 use a 48V lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery. Ask our team how best to leave it if you will be away for several weeks or months.
- Check your insurance covers the buggy while you are away.
Who can keep an eye on it while you're away?
Having someone local check on the buggy gives peace of mind. A trusted neighbour, property manager or key holder can:
- check it is still secure and covered after storms or strong winds;
- follow any care steps you have agreed;
- let you know if anything needs attention before you arrive.
What should you do when you arrive?
- Remove the cover and check for dust, leaves or nesting insects.
- Give it a full charge before your first trip.
- Check the tyres and lights: the Z2 and R2 run 215/35-12 tyres at 200 kPa front and 280 kPa rear.
- Check the windscreen wiper and clean the reversing camera lens.
- Take a short test drive close to home first, and contact us if anything seems unusual.
Should you let holiday guests use it?
If you rent your home out between visits, a road legal buggy can be an attractive extra for guests. Think carefully about insurance, who is allowed to drive, and clear instructions before offering it, and check the rules that apply to your situation.
