Something like that happened to my friend. The instructors car which he was in was so terrible it kept breaking down, and everything was messed up, like sticking clutch, screwed up gearbox, etc. Eventually he passed not for completing everything, but for handling the car well during that period, after the 30 minutes they were out there, the examiner went balistic at the instructor for letting his student drive such a crappy car.
