The Caparo T1 surpassed the Top Gear Power Board leading time of 1:17.6, held by the Koenigsegg CCX, with a time of 1:10.6. Though immediately having declared the time and placed it on the Power Board, presenter Jeremy Clarkson then removed the record because it did not meet the show’s rule that the car must be able to go over a speed bump, despite it being street-legal.
