XML is generally more robust. For example if any fields contain newlines, that may well cause a problem with csv files because a newline indicates the end of a record. XML handles this with no problem. Also if you have extended characters outside the normal Latin-1 set, XML will handle that. Or binary data, and so on and so on.
But if the data is straightforward go with CSV with a song in your heart.

Thanks Textor,
This all makes me a bit more comfortable with how we proceed and that the plans won't be shot down by the technology
