I have never had a more pleasant car-buying experience. Alex went above and beyond the call of duty. I bought a Z3 3.0i roadster with the intention of taking my girl on a 3,000 mile road trip the next week. Alex made absolutely sure that the car was up to snuff, even going so far as to replace the (still functioning) fan clutch as a matter of preventative maintenance, just to make absolutely sure we would have a safe and worry-free trip. Thanks for everything, guys! Ill be certain to turn my other gear-head friends on to your brokerage.
I recently bought a car from Glen Shelly and I have rarely come across such great service. Alex will take care of every single need and concern you have even it comes out his own pocket. He even replaced parts he didnt know might not be working on the off chance they would fail. Hes also offered to buy a complete new set of tires for me if Im not happy with the set current on the car. When he tells you that he wants to make sure you have a good experience, he means it.I trusted the reviews to get me to their dealership and they were spot on. I hope this review helps anyone looking at one of their cars to trust them and know youre going to have a good experience and youll have nothing to worry about.
Alex is a True knowledgeable Professional and is thoroughly familiar with Euro Cars especially the Porsche and BMW marques. Initially my vehicle required a final sorting to make it meet the high standards of marketing to serious buyers who demand excellence. Alex was spot on with his accurate assessment of what needed to be accomplished. His experienced and accurate techs also prepared the car for presentation. Alex gets my highest rating for customer Service and and performing his skill set in marketing and selling my 1972 2002 tii. No Hurries with No Worries
My out of town son was looking to purchase a car from Glen Shelly Brokers. I was asked to go check the car out as well as take it for a test drive. The car was just as Alex described it and everything was in perfect condition. Alex was absolutely great to work with and even delivered the car to our house for my son to pick up weeks later. Alex is an extremely honest man and stands by his word.
Alex is a true car enthusiast. Hes was extremely honest and a pleasure to buy a car from. Being multiple states away is always nerve racking to purchase a vehicle but Alex made the process easy and enjoyable. Not a better place to buy your dream car
I had the luxury of recently working with Alex and his team at Glen Shelly after I had been in the market for the perfect E36 M3 Convertible for almost a year. The experience started with the detail and honesty of his listing for the vehicle I was interested in. They didnt hide any of the expected underlying concerns that come with a 20yr old vehicle, and they took the time to share all of the information they gathered regarding previous ownership, condition, future expectations etc. The ad also promised a luxury buying experience, and a no-pressure dynamic - that was absolutely the case. Alex arranged a showing and test drive at my convenience, we spent almost 2hrs talking about the vehicle, his shop and their methodology, other potential options to consider, and ultimately got the transaction done the same day. Prior to my purchase, Alex and his team spent significant time and investment to ensure the vehicle was in its best possible running condition, and it was immaculately clean. What better avenue to buy a used vehicle from than a Commercial Airline Pilot, track racing instructor, and a true German motorcar enthusiast, with a great team. Plus, they delivered the vehicle at my convenience to my office, and are holding true to their commitment to address a few items that have come up since I took delivery of the vehicle. I would recommend Glen Shelly, Alex and the team to anyone in the market for a high-end used vehicle. Thanks for everything, Alex!
Justin and Alex are true professionals. I worked with them on tuning my Delica and the offered great insights and recommendations. Would return for future work.
Working with was Alex was by far the best experience Ive had buying a car. I entered the COVID-19 shutdown desperately needed a working vehicle to replace the dud in my driveway, and he helped me out-- with a breeze of a transaction at an excellent price.We spoke about the 2008 4runner I saw online in the morning, and he was in Denver in front of my house with the truck (and another fella behind him with a trailer for my Honda) by mid-afternoon. After our test drive, he took ample time to get under the hood and answer every question my over-excited amateur mechanic friend posed.This guy really cares about what he does and it shows. His honesty, fairness, personability, and commitment to service makes him a real stand-out in the used car business. I highly recommend Alex at Glenn Shelly for your next car purchase.
Very friendly, honest, helpful, and knowledgeable mechanics
I have never had such an experience purchasing a car as I did with Alex and his team! I flew in from California to purchase an E30 Touring. I was picked up at the airport and taken to the location of the car where we inspected it well and did the paperwork. It was very easy and a pleasant car buying experience! I purchased one of my dream cars and will definitely be returning to Glen Shelly to purchase another one of my dream cars.
Great service and friendly people; they have all kinds of odds and ends hard to find parts as well
Great experience with the team at Glen Shelly. Having sold a car through them on consignment, I realize how truthful and detailed they are in advertising the cars they sell. They do so as thoroughly, honestly, and with the most detail, possible. That being said, I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase a car from them, either - knowing that they vet any and all issues, and remediate any which are apparent prior to sale, with their vehicles. Rest assured they are a well-informed, honest, and strong team to deal with.
I bought a 1995 Porsche 993 from Glen Shelly a couple of months ago. I live in North Carolina so I dealt with Alex by phone and e-mail initially and he was very helpful and answered all my questions and gave advice as well. Alex and his crew are extremely knowledgeable car guys, not only BMWs which I would say is their specialty but Porsche and other high end performance cars. I flew out to Denver to look at the car and 3 weeks later flew out again. They picked me up at the airport and had the car spotless and ready to go when I got there. Just a great experience all the way around for me and I would not hesitate to recommend Glen Shelly. Its a unique business in a unique location. Ive dealt with some great BMW, Porsche and Mercedes shops over the years and I put these guys at the top of my list.
Bought a lightly used M240i from these guys. The car is great--better than described--and the whole buying experience was cool. No used car salesman BS. I dealt with Alex from the beginning. Very responsive and knowledgable. You wont be disappointed!
A top notch organization that made purchasing extremely easy and low-pressure. They are a highly knowledgeable group of BMW enthusiasts who welcomed my many phone calls and questions, which was especially helpful as I live out-of-state. They even accommodated bringing the vehicle to a independent shop for a pre-purchase inspection at my request - which produced no surprises. They then picked me up from the airport and had all paperwork and temporary registration/plates ready to go to make the transaction seamless and easy. The car was exactly as advertised and I couldnt be any happier with the whole experience. Definitely put your trust in these guys!
D been on a search for my ideal car and headed down plenty of dead ends. Its really tough finding that perfect combination of utility, efficiency, and and entertaining driving dynamics. The more I researched, the more I became a fan of the BMW E30 wagons but, like usual, what I desired turned out to be unobtainium - until I stumbled on Glen Shellys site. I contacted Alex by phone and soon realized he was an enthusiast of the highest order. The kind of enthusiast that appreciates that high performance doesnt just mean 1/4 mile times and g-forces, but also describes a car fits the drivers desires AND needs.Over the course of months, Alex and I worked out a deal on my dream e30 but ironically, just before pulling the trigger on the project, both Alex and I (in tandem) decided that, all things considered, it wasnt going to be the right thing for me. That was a tough one for both of us but I have huge respect for Alex putting his customers best interests first!Since then Ive discovered the wonderful 90s BMW 318ti, found a sweet 98, and am very happy! Even though I didnt buy it from Alex he was instrumental in advising me and has been very helpful sharing his knowledge on this wonderful little car that were both enthusiastic about. I will definitely be working with Glen Shelly Auto Brokers if I ever decide to step up to the next level. 88 Porsche 911? A fella can dream cant he?
Great experience, Alex is an upfront guy. I highly recommend them.
Recently (January of 2020) I had the pleasure of working with Alex the owner of Glen Shelly and his staff and I purchased one of my bucket list cars a BMW E30 325is. I had been searching for one of these cars for months and I stumbled across this car and their dealership on Craigslist. Being weary of anything on Craigslist I decided to give them a call. Alex promptly picked up the phone and began answering all my questions in full detail. Of the questions he could not answer immediately he researched the answer and within twenty-four hours got back to me.It is to note Alex does have another full-time job that does take him away from the dealership a couple days out of the week. Alex let me know of this and put me in immediate contact with one of his staff, Peter. Peter is an absolute asset to Glen Shelly! Peter and I scheduled two different Facetime calls to go over the car. The first was an exterior and underside walk-around of the car. Peter took his time to answer and show me everything little that I asked for while on the call. The second was two days later when I asked for a cold start video of the car, (It’s a dealer’s trick to always show a car with a warm engine to hide startup problems). Peter sent me a video of the cold start up where he pushed the cold car out of the hanger to start in the sunlight. After two days of sitting the video showed no signs of startup issues. Now that is customer service!After negotiating with Alex, I committed to flying out to Denver from Salt Lake City to purchase the car. Alex made it very clear that if I did not like the car or wanted to walk away from the deal, they would take me right back to airport, no hard feelings. I flew out four days later and Peter was sent to pick me up from the airport in the BMW. Upon arrival Peter let me drive the car back to the dealership. Glen Shelly is about 30 miles from the Denver International Airport and that to me was a very adequate test drive distance. We got to the dealership and I spent about 45 minutes going over the car and the documentation on my own without anyone breathing down my back. The guys in the shop area even offered me a lift if I wanted to raise the car up. Alex Is really good at finding cars with a good pedigree and lots of documentation.I absolutely fell in love with the car and I purchased it! I was hesitant about driving the car back to Salt Lake City, due to its age, but Alex said if it were him, he’d drive it. So, I hopped in the car, started driving and spent a day and a half driving it home without any problems!I cannot speak highly enough about Alex and his Staff at Glen Shelly. I have bought many a car in my day and they truly made the experience worth it. I would most definitely do business with them again!
After looking for a clean, well-cared for E46 BMW for some time, I ran across Alex and Glen Shelly Auto Brokers online and decided to take a look at a nice 2000 323ci he was selling on behalf of a client. The experience couldn’t have been easier, and Alex’s easy going approach allowed me to focus on the merits of the car, without any distractions or undue concerns about what I was actually buying. He was extremely knowledgeable about this particular car, as well as classic European (and Japanese) cars in general.After I decided to purchase the car, Alex was very responsive and accommodating when a minor clerical issue came up when I registered the car. He also stepped up on a small maintenance issue that came to light after the purchase, again being very accommodating in resolving the issue.In summary, if your quest leads you to one of the cars Alex and Glen Shelley Auto Brokers is offering for sale, or if you need a particular unique car tracked down, you can be assured that you will be well taken care of and fairly treated in using Alex and Glen Shelly Auto Brokers. In addition, you will have access to a wealth of knowledge and experience to help guide your purchase.
Professional and know their cars
I originally went through Alex at Glen Shelly when I was in search of a FJ60. Alex was very helpful and responsive to my endless stream of questions. He went and test drove two different FJ60s for me and was very honest about their flaws. We were actually a couple months into this process when I got a little antsy about waiting so long to find a car that I decided to forego the search for an FJ60 and I purchased a BMW 328xi from Alex.This is where my problems began. I did not ask for a PPI or have someone check out the car before purchasing and assumed that this would have been done before my purchase. Fast forward two months in to my ownership of the car. The ABS and Traction light came on so I took it in to a BMW mechanic I know. Imagine my surprise when I need to replace the transfer case as it had been destroyed from lack of maintenance. This was extremely expensive to replace and more than anything, frustrating. I had an extremely pleasant experience with Alex and Bart at Glen Shelly and was very happy with the whole experience until this fiasco. I would definitely recommend that if you purchase a car from them that you get it checked out by an independent mechanic before buying. Save yourself 3,000$.
