I love animals, but I also collect cars. A friend used to sprinkle hot sauce under his hood to deter invaders. I can’t speak for opossums, but I’ve had luck with natural rodent repelling sprays that contain essential oils such as peppermint and cinnamon (in the US, “Grandpa Gus”) is one such formulation. Highly recommend against glue traps (inhumane) and poison (horrible).
Once gone, I recommend checking your car for chewed hoses and wires – I recently refurbished a car and found a large, ancient mouse nest in the space underneath the windshield and the engine firewall.
