It’s 30 years since Saab gave us its first turbocharged car, and to celebrate, the firm launched this special edition 9-3 called the Turbo X. Only available in black, it has a 2.8-litre twin-turbo V6 with 280bhp, which is mated to the firm’s new XWD four-wheel-drive system. The 0-62mph sprint takes 5.7 seconds and the 9-3 also comes with a bodykit, larger brakes, 18-inch alloys, leather seats and carbon fibre trim. Sales start next year.

The error is part of the mock exam included on the í‚á£30 pre-test tutorial, The Complete Official Learner Driver Pack. In the real thing, novices can only make five mistakes on the 35-question multiple-choice paper.

It"s feared many borderline candidates may copy the error in the pack and fail as a result. The DSA"s Liz Flaherty told Auto Express sales of the affected discs to wholesalers had been suspended. However, she admitted that 14,000 were sent out and could be in the hands of learners or still in shops.

"We apologise for the inconvenience," she said. "All sales into retail outlets have been frozen and future orders will contain the revised pack."

Any learners who bought one of the affected copies can get a free replacement by telephoning 01234 744044. The error comes at a time when the DSA is seeking to raise the cost of the driving test by í‚á£4 this year to í‚á£66. Another increase is likely in 2006 to take the price up to í‚á£70.
