   Here is a first animation using it (sorry for the left-hand driving,
but I had to reverse the model so the plates and rear windshield banner
were right... :)

   I've changed his blue shirt for a plaid shirt: as the car was already
blue I wanted something different.

   Curiously, even if it is a static figure, my brain almost sees him
steering at some points.

   Now, I noticed a few more problems:

   + he seems to be glued to the seat, as car movement doesn't affects
him (I placed the model into the animation, not into the simulation).
   + OMG, he is riding without belt!
   + Wait... that Micra had automatic shift?
