{{Power Laps|series=Series 1}} Please note that most of these times are as they were shown on-screen during Series 1 of ''Top Gear'', and were later "corrected" to include tenths starting from the [[{{ROOTPAGENAME}}/Series 2|second series]]. This resulted in some cars trading positions, and others even setting completely different lap times.

Unlike later series, Series 1 featured a plethora of Power Laps which would have been recognised as valid lap times in later years, but were for some reason or another not officially added to the board during the broadcast of the inaugural series of ''[[{{ROOTPAGENAME}}|Top Gear]]''. Some of these, such as the [[Ford Focus RS#First_generation|Ford Focus RS]] and [[Volkswagen Golf R32#First_generation|Volkswagen Golf R32]] would debut in Series 2, whereas others, such as the [[Mercedes-Benz E-Class (W211)#E55 AMG|Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG]] and [[Audi RS6]] would never be added.
