The Polo Twist comes with free air conditioning and to promote the offer, Volkswagen commissioned a Polo with the coolest look possible, made of ice.
The full-size sculpture was parked outside the Saatchi Art Gallery, South Bank, London and was made from 9.5 tonnes of ice imported from Canada by a company which specialises in ice carving.
It took about 350 hours to create, was hand-carved by three sculptors in a freezer at minus 10 degrees Celsius and was transported in 100 individually wrapped sections by 'freezer freight'.
Prices start at £9,185 on-the-road for the 1.2-litre three-door model with air conditioning, 14-inch alloy wheels and the choice of metallic or pearl effect paint as standard.
