Well the following books seem to offer the best practise questions for any type of aptitude testing including the Mensa Test.
1.The ultimate IQ test book 9.99 pounds sterling
2. Mensa challenge your brain Math and Logic Puzzles 4.69 pounds sterling.
Ordered together through amazon they cost a combined total of sterling pounds 14.68 ,if you want to convert that to dollars visit XE dot com.That link contains quite a number of other helpful books ,I hope that was helpful.

I think your may be invalid. If you are looking for true results, I believe the Mensa test is supposed to measure "learning" IQ. Maybe I'm comparing to when I've prepared in the past for SAT's or ACT's where you are tested on specific knowledge. I believe that the IQ test is designed to test ability, not necessarily knowledge. AND I realized that you are looking for the "test format" but I think that might defeat some of the purpose of the test.

I recommend looking at SAT and ACT test booklets. But Not just that, you should also look up MENSA books, because some of the logic puzzles they have actually aren't so much "logic" as they are "non-logic MENSA problems".

Here's an example of a book, the second one in a series

And here's a calendar of mensa problems, which can make it fun :)

Hope that helps!! Good luck with it!!

You do not study for the IQ test, it is taken spontaneously, once.

It's not a test you need practice for. You can certainly search online for example questions, but that would defeat the purpose of the test. Like sturmeh said above, it's kind of a one-time thing.
