Season 1? Oh dear, that was when it was like today's fifth gear, with that Jason guy, and no James May .

Surprised the jet car episode is blocked. But it was a bit shocking, that nearly stopped the show altogether at the time.

You should try and find some old Top Gear (if you haven't seen it, to compare), it wasn't always this way. I can barely remember who was on the show, Tiff Needell from fifth gear (few new Top Gear episodes), Noel Edmunds, Quentin Wilson etc. but it was more about general cars before, and less an entertainment show.
