    To be fair it was a minter, no rust anywhere, think the mileage was fairly low, running original wheels and a couple of other things, 5 grand is a little steep but correct me if I'm wrong, they're pretty rare. I found out the guy has a garage near me so I'm going to have another look at it so I'll take a couple of snaps of it.

    Fire and Ice are quite abundant on german autotrader type sites price all depends on the condition really. Most of the ones on the german sites are 8v gti

    the 16v and G60 versions are very rare, also check the rear quarters have the hidden logo inside, try getting them to steam up and it should reveal the logo

    The spotted motor in question was a G60. Charger was recently rebuilt aswell because we all know G-Laders go bang randomly.

    Is that standard on a fire and ice?

    I would have thought it would have said G60 rather than GTI, unless it started out as a GTI.

    not all fire and ice golfs are g60's they did a few different variations, as for being standard, i have no idea, i think so as it's a bit of a strange thing to do aftermarket, also i have no idea if thats both sides or not, the pic was provided by a friend of mine on another forum, i will dig out the list of available F&I golfs

    heres the info i found for another forum that was asking

    The Golf Fire & Ice is one of the most wanted special-models on the German market. All Fire & Ice were built between 1990 and 1991 and made part of a promotional campaign for the movie "Fire, Ice & Dynamite" by Willy Bogner jr. starring Roger Moore and Simon Shepherd.

    Fire and Ice Golfs were available in Germany exclusively (all Fire & Ice outside of Germany were exports by VW-enthusiasts) in the following versions:

    - Fire & Ice 1.8l / 90bhp
    - Fire & Ice Automatic 1.8l / 90bhp
    - Fire & Ice GTI 1.8l / 107bhp
    - Fire & Ice GTD 1.6l turbo-diesel / 80bhp
    - Fire & Ice GTI 16v 1.8l / 129bhp
    - Fire & Ice GTI G60 1.8l /160bhp

    ** NOTE: The GTI 16v and GTI G60 versions of the Fire & Ice are extremely hard to find!

    Despite common belief and rumors that 7000 Fire & Ice were built, VW recently stated that the number of Fire & Ice manufactured and sold on the German market was 16700.

    Based on the Golf CL (as the factory-code reveals - not Golf GT as many people assume) the Fire & Ice model features the following differences compared to a standard Golf:

    * only 1 paint-finish available: dark violet perleffect (LC4V)
    * comes with 90-spec GTI trim (thin sidebars, sideskirts etc.)
    ** NOTE: GTI trim is on ALL Fire & Ice models from the basic 90hp upto GTI G60 version! Even the Fire & Ice GTI G60 does NOT come with G60-flares!
    * large Fire & Ice logos on the rear quarter panels
    * Fire & Ice sidemarker-emblems instead of indicators or CL/GTI/G60 emblems
    ** NOTE: Even the GTI versions do NOT have GTI-emblems apart from the pink (!!!) rear-badge saying "Golf GTI". The Fire & Ice GTI G60 version comes with an additional "G60" grille-badge however.
    * pink colour-coded "Golf" rear-badge and additional rear Fire & Ice logo to the left
    * partially painted "big" GL-/GTI-bumpers and mirrors + painted rear-handle
    * Fire & Ice sports-seats in violet/blue/black (custom Fire & Ice cloth) manufactured by Recaro with Fire & Ice logo embroided
    ** NOTE: An extremely rare semi-leather trim exists - full leather trim optional. Fire & Ice interiour-trim with 4 headrests instead of 2 is considered as seldom.
    * hight-adjustment for front-seats
    * headrests in violet/blue (custom Fire & Ice cloth)
    * ceiling and carpet in black
    * ashtray with Fire & Ice logo
    * comes with 15"-BBS Estoril alloys and 185/55 R15 tyres.
    * GTI 16v and GTI G60 versions feature the GTI sports steering wheel
    * deep front spoiler-lip
    * green tinted windows
    * double headlight grille with black VW badge
    * black rear VW badge
    * white front indicators and darkened rear lights

    Didn't know there were base models like that. The feltham one was a G60 that had been rebuilt, charger and all.
