Cars, just like humans, have their own way of expressing themselves in their own peculiar way. If a mechanical component needs to be replaced, it won't break immediately but give indications - by way of an irritating sound - to let the driver know it needs a visit to the doctor aka mechanic.
Other ways of expression is in its design, with the front of a vehicle likened to a human face. Performance cars from BMW's M Division or Mercedes-AMG will take on more of an intimidating appearance, coupled by a very loud exhaust note as well.
On a softer note, there are some cars that have happier-designed faces that one can't help but also feel happy inside. Gumtree lists some of the cars that will immediately put a smile on your face with 'smiles' of their own:
Peugeot 208
The French automaker is known for its sleek and futuristic design, back when the first-generation model launched in 2012. Peugeot celebrated a double award win at the Auto Express New Car Awards, with the 208 winning the Best Supermini class award.

Mazda MX-5
The very first MX-5 made its public debut at the Chicago Auto Show in 1989 and was widely praised for its near perfect 50-50 weight distribution ratio.
The MX-5 still continues to be a popular car to this day and on Gumtree's large online marketplace, it is basically a case of 'take your pick'.
Hyundai Atos
The Atos is one of Hyundai's recent additions to the model lineup, aimed at going up against the likes of other A-segment rivals like the Renault Kwid, Suzuki Celerio and Datsun Go.
