Caterham can be ordered now smile
Cheers for the heads-up.

Think I'll wait until Monday though when the London bus freebie is supposedly rolled out.

Bum; hadn't realised or may have waited myself frown

Guess a begging email to customer service couldn't hurt.

Pics on eBay now, suggesting Monday is the release date. At £20-25 a pop selling them on should give a nice discount on the Caterham

Hi, just wondering if anybody else on here has all the modular buildings? Started collecting them about 18 months ago and still waiting to have enough space to start building them.

Not seen it mentioned yet but did you all know the code GB10 will get you £10 off Lego purchases of £40 or more on the Lego website until tomorrow night? Been running for a while now apparently. I tried it this morning and it appears to be working well. I was holding off to get the freebie promo London Bus but I suspect this offer will start when the £10 off offer ends.

Also triple points on Starwars stuff for VIP members.

What time does the freebie usually go live? I thought free gifts generally started at the beginning of the month anyway so waited until this morning but nothing is visible on the site yet. I'll give it a few more hours...

I hope that's not the case, but I'll order with the code if it is. I'm not that fussed about the bus.

ETA: your post changed as I was replying; order placed! Thank you for the heads up smile

I tried an hour or so too and it was not live then either. It can be used multiple times too so I split my orders up to take maximum advantage

Thanks for the heads-up folks. Knew nothing of the bus freeby until it was written about here and I'd forgotten all about the discount code. I wasn't going to buy the Caterham as I think it overpriced, but at £60 with the future offset of flogging the bus, it suddenly becomes acceptable.

Ordered the Caterham + free bus + discount (just use your country code + 10 if outside the UK, so I used NL10).

Traded in some points too, so not paid much. smile
Ditto. Ordered the Caterham and Beetle (have the Mini and VW bus already). £10 quid off with promo code and used some VIP points. Free bus too smile

Glad I checked this thread! I'd been trying to get the bus to appear this morning, to no avail. £10 off as well, very pleased! If not entirely sure that spending money on a toy car as compensation for a massive repair bill for my actual car is broken man maths.

I picked up the Caterham from the lego store today and got the bus.

Do I build it, keep it or sell it?

Same here - only paid £9.99 for the Caterham. Terrifying how many VIP points I'd accumulated paperbag

Received despatch email but no tracking code anymore? Anyone else get one?

I couldn't resist the caterham with a bit of a discount (code + VIP points) so have had it for £55. Well worth it to go with the F40.

Just ordered the Caterham myself the other night, so managed to use the GB10 code.

This is my 45th set...I have a problem!
