Was thinking of PX my B for a C and doing the rest on Finance for a Newish Corsa C. So i been doing some research and seen lots of pics, and so far the C looks real ugly! Whats with the Interior Center Console! Its all to modernised! I dont know what im gonna do now, stay put or go get one!
Anyone got some interior\exterior pics of a c (modded and unmodded)
Or any advise would be apreciated!!!

Interior is not the C's best point but think the SXi/SRi looks better with the silver trim (even if it is painted plastic rather than the aluminium it's trying to be). Why don't you drive a C I'm sure you'll find it better than you expected. I'd rather have my SXi than go back to my old B.

I have a Corsa C, in fact i'm onto my second one. I've also driven LOTS of Corsa B's because my Dad runs a driving school.
I have to say when my Dad got his first Corsa C which was an Sxi we were all VERY suprised how they'd improved things like build quality, handling etc. Looks were different but as with all new cars you get used to them in time. I wouldn't say that the centre console is at all bad in the Corsa C, but then all of the ones I've owned and driven are Sxi's. I honestly think you will be inpressed changing your Corsa B for a Corsa C as long as you get an Sxi / Sri

I owned a Corsa B b4 my new Corsa C and am glad I did the change, I have an SXi so the interior is better than the other models IMO.

Headlights are quite nice, but the rest of it isn't. I much prefer my Corsa C to that one above. It is nice to see that all they have changed is a few bits and peices tho

i've got both in my family, i got a Corsa B SRi and me bro has a Corsa C SXi.
TBH i prefer to drive mine, i haven't got P/S and can feel the car much better than the C.
The C is too big as well, its great with handling and build quality etc, but its too refined for me at the mo.
also mine feels more steardy on the motorway too, maybe cause ive got a heavy engine. A lot of me friends agree with this too ( being passengers)
