Hi Colin, According to our information 4 wheel disc brakes are listed as an optional extra on the SL model in the 1985 specs..

e.g 135i Convertible around USD$44K base, In the Uk abt 36K Stirling (AUD$55k) (not sure about US taxes or ORC) here in Aus RRP is around $75K and drive away a staggering $90K
Note from Editor:- pricing in Australia versus overseas is a very contentious point that we shall be dealing with in a future newsletter
