To be honest mate, they are probably saying that because of the image corsa b's have.
Alot were ruined by chavs & narrow minded people now think that all corsa b's are chavvy / no go areas!
Amazing how many times they say that about mine, only its almost standard, so i really dont get it.
I'd definately go for it. When i was taking lessons, i bought myself a scrap nova for £20 (was alot of money back then LOL)
tbh if i didnt, then i would be one of these people who have no choice but to pay the garage for jobs now, tought me loads rebuilding that.
Unfortunately i did it too early & had to sell it on, but was well worth the experience & i made a tidy profit on it.
Nows the time to do it! With spring / summer coming up, loads of time to play about

Having owned a Corsa B and a C...I'd say get a B
If you've got the money and the space to keep it off the road for the time being, then i'd say get one bought
My first car was a Corsa B 1.4 8V and was a perect start Good luck fella

1.2 8v is worse than 1.0 12v mate.

I disagree with that on a mechanical, reliability and learning to drive point of view mate.
