Which compact SUV to buy?

I know this belongs in the Road Car forum, but if i put it there, no Aussie will see it, so it's here, where you'll all see it and hopefully provide helpful suggestions...

My sister needs to replace her 2001 Astra. She wants a compact SUV, with auto trans and won't pay a penny more than $30K, drive away. She keeps asking my advice but I loathe SUVs with a passion, so i don't know a peach from a lemon.

She has a teenager and an 8 year old, they all have bicycles, she lives in Bne and her daily commute is 50km round trip, all urban, the car will never leave the bitumen or tow a trailer.

Are there any dogs which must be avoided, any pitfalls to lookout for? Any particularly good ones to consider?
