I preferred both my Bs to my C, but my mum's C is better than both my Bs 
C if it's an SRi, B if you can't get a C SRi.

iv got both, my c is probably the only c i would ever own being a cdti sri, it feels well built and on the surface seems to handle better, however it does have a tendency to just let go when pushed to hard which aint good,
The b i think offers great value for money and there are plenty of relatively cheap engine coversions for it.

C - more 'mod cons' as standard. Probably safer. Newer parts, blaa blaa.

Love my C - my B was crap in comparison IMO. I've got an SXi+ which is basically an SRi (minus a few bits, plus others). Much less body roll than my old one (both standard) and much better ride. I've also got air-con which was nice through the bits of summer we had.
Wouldn't go back to an old one personally.

corsa C GSi 
i've had both B & C
had both turbo'd an XE corsa B x2 and nicely modded irmscher one's in both B & C form
i find the B dash very boring tbh... the C is a much more modern car witch seems alot more quiet when your in the cabin, comforts on higher spec models are nice too.
i'd opt C over a B.

corsa b, not a fan of c's mainly cause b's can be turned into track cars without looking to weird. where as iv never seen a track styled c but i imagine it would look weird.

so what do think would be the best for my next car?
1. corsa b 1.6 16v 2000
2. corsa c 1.8 sri
im thinking styling for the corsa b has gone down hill as some of the nicest parts & kits are no longer available.
so if id got a corsa c would i have more options in styleing ect.
and 7omm mate iv only ever seen 1 corsa gsi and that one is yours is this because you done the conversion on it or can you actually buy a corsa c gsi?

And yes, if you get C get a CDTI then fit a tuning box to it. 1.8 power without 1.8 running costs .
I want a tuning box
