By Jack Carfrae First Official Pictures 30 January 2007 11:35 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti 60th Anniversary: the lowdown This week marks the beginning of Ferrari’s extravagant 60th anniversary celebrations – and they’re led by that rarest of things: a Ferrari special edition. Between kicking off a cross-continental marathon and announcing a Ferrari theme park, Maranello has unveiled plans to produce a limited run of 60 unique versions of the 612 Scaglietti. Each car will commemorate the 60 most significant events in the history of the company, ranging from F1 World Championship wins to the launch of milestone models such as the F40 and Enzo.

Mercedes-Benz B-Class

The rather unloved yet brilliantly packaged Mercedes B-Class will enter its second generation at next month's Frankfurt motor show. Gone, sadly, is the ingenious sandwich floor construction, replaced by a conventional front-drive platform. The result is a reduction in height by 48mm to 1557mm, while length has grown by 89mm and width by 11mm.

Concept Car of the Week: IAD Alien (1986)

By the mid-80s two concepts had been presented – the TRX and the Arrival – that showed innovative thinking and tastefulness but a little innocuous styling. In an attempt to attract both attention and more clients, IAD CEO John Shute asked his team to design a futuristic concept that was both innovative and different.
