Wouldnt spend that amount on either really but if had to choose would be the C...as it looks better and is quicker.

1.8 SRI is group 9E
I'd go with the 1.8 SRi Corsa C,but i would say that cuz I'm going buy one in the next couple of weeks/months depending on funds

I agree , I'm just sad I couldn't afford a "proppa" one cuz me & my pikey mates haven't laid enough drives to fund a 1.8
