Are you able to compile and run your own executables on that system? I had a similar situation at work where the most recent version they were willing to install was the version that came on the CD provided with the OS, which was 6.0.2 or something crazy old like that. I've since started maintaining my own build of Vim on a network share accessible from that server, which is currently on some 8.0 patchlevel.
