i have a corsa b 1.2 8v but plan on gettin the corsa c 1.8 in jan 2009 but i still look at some B's on here and still really like them,would have to be a 1.6 sport if i did decide against the C but still cannot decide.
are the 1.6 sports very quick?
i know the 1.8 sri will be newer & quicker but it still gets me thinking on what to go for.
what would you do?

I've had both, wouldn't buy another C, especially not now a 1.8 will cost you a shitload to tax.
