I finally managed to get Vim to show syntax highlighting in icewm, turns 
out that colour Xterms weren't enabled in .Xdefaults. My .Xdefaults file 
now reads:

XTerm*internalBorder:  10
XTerm*highlightSelection:  true
XTerm*VT100*colorBDMode:  on
XTerm*VT100*colorBD:  blue
XTerm*VT100*colorULMode:  on
XTerm*VT100*colorUL:  magenta
XTerm.VT100.eightBitInput:  true
XTerm.VT100.eightBitOutput:  true
XTerm*scrollBar:  true
XTerm.VT100.titeInhibit:  true
XTerm.VT100*colorMode:  on
XTerm.VT100*dynamicColors:  on
XTerm.VT100*colorULMode:  on
XTerm.VT100*underLine:  off
XTerm.VT100*colorBDMode: on
XTerm.VT100*color0: black
XTerm.VT100*color1: red3
XTerm.VT100*color2: green3
XTerm.VT100*color3: yellow3
XTerm.VT100*color4: blue3
XTerm.VT100*color5: magenta3
XTerm.VT100*color6: cyan3
XTerm.VT100*color7: gray90
XTerm.VT100*color8: gray30
XTerm.VT100*color9: red
XTerm.VT100*color10: green
XTerm.VT100*color11: yellow
XTerm.VT100*color12: blue
XTerm.VT100*color13: magenta
XTerm.VT100*color14: cyan
XTerm.VT100*color15: white
XTerm.VT100*colorUL: yellow
XTerm.VT100*colorBD: blue
XTerm.VT100*cursorColor: lime green
*customization: -color

I'm not sure if this is all correct but it seems to be working fine. The 
default configuration only gave me a monochrome terminal, this looks 
much nicer.
