Opinions on the Honda Civic?

My daughter and son in-law are looking to buy a Honda Civic, as it lots of room for the bits needed travelling with their young baby. They have around £8000 to spend - anything you would recommend or watch out for with common faults?

An excellent buy with some provisos. I saw a 25k mile 2008 1.8iSE at auction last Friday sell for £5400.
