Is a 2 door volkswagon Rabbit considered a sports car?

Question 1
Is a 2 door volkswagon Rabbit considered a sports car?...  

Answers
1)   no its not at all - jordanedgeley

2)   It can be called many things but sports car ain't one of them. - bob

3)   A hot hatch it is, but a sports car it isn't...at least not to the Insurance Institute here in the USA.

Variants of this car appeal to Sports Car drivers though: The R32 & GTI can really mess up the sports car scene with their oft times superior handling and performance.

If your reason for asking relates to cost of insurance, go to any of the better insurance companies web sites and enter/compare this car to others. You'll find that based on trim level and the engine in it, there may be higher rates for this car. - Steve in Seattle

4)   it is a economy car unless a gti its not a hot hatch - Volkswagen

Question 2
Will MG ZR wheels fit on to mk3 golf with 4 stud wheels ?...  I just would like to know if anyone has ever tried to put MG wheel on to a mk3 vw golf and if they fit properly?

Answers
1)   Yes: The PCD is the same (4x100), offset is similar & centre bore is 1mm different. - J G

2)   Why on earth would you want to inflict that on a Golf ! - L G

3)   I would say YES.

According to international fitment guide,both MG ZR and MK3 has the same PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter).This value must be exactly same if you are fitting another vehicle's wheels to your car.
In your case,they match.No problem.

ET(Offset) values and Centre bores sizes are slightly different but since these values are in close range,i do not think it will cause any problem.

Hope this helps,

4)   No they won't fit the centre bore is different.
The Golf centre hub is 57.1 mm but the MG wheels will only be bored to 56.1, even though the PCD is the same. - CDC

Question 3
Is the leg room in an old Volkswagen Bus good?...  I'm 6'1" tall and have very long legs. I also have a love for those cute classic VW buses and am considering buying one. I haven't driven one yet, I'm just checking them out on the internet so far. From the pics I've been looking at, he leg room looks pretty tight.
If this is the case, can the driver's seat be moved back at all?

Thank you!

Answers
1)   I'm 6'1 and had a 79 Bus. Loved it, didn't have a lot of leg room, but I wasn't cramped either. Get one with bucket seats instead of the bench seat for more adjustment. - Shane A

2)   The whole experience is different. Since you're seated VERY upright, your knees just don't seem to have the same challenges that they do in other cars. That said, note that on the oldest models you almost straddle the steering column (wheel isn't quite horizontal, but close) and on the newer ones - 1968 and later - the steering column isn't quite as prominent, but does still deliver the same general seating experience as the older models. - Steve in Seattle

3)   You will fit. VW's have a lot more leg room than one would think. Look for a "walk through" bus with bucket seats. If there is not enough room, you can remount the seat back just a bit.
They are fun cars! I have a 1961 split window in my tree as a tree house for my kids! - Rod Knocker

You can also use the badge in any country in the E.E.C. but you must be careful to find out and follow the local rules regarding the use of the badge - Dennis - 1
