In general:

The Mitsubishi Lancer has different Marlboro censorship, where the chevrons are used, but with no text. In the final game, the side chevron was changed to a rectangle, the front chevrons were flattened, and the rear chevron was changed so that only the lower bumper was white (along with the "TOMMI" text being added in the final game).
Martini logos are present on the Ford Focus and Lancia Delta, which were removed due to it being an alcohol sponsor.
However, the livery used for the Ford Focus in these screenshots was used as a base for the Colin McRae Rally Remaster in 2013. It's unknown why this texture was used there in specific, but the livery is now recovered.
Because these screenshots were dated from 1999 to early 2000, the Ford Focus shown in the screenshots is the 1999-spec car, which was changed into an unlockable car in favour of the 2000 car.

Disc contains several shots from July 6, 1999. These images also featured as Championship shots on DPK/Product Artwork discs.

A lot of screenshots presented in both discs from Codemasters, which were released in February 2000 (DPK from February 9 and Product Artwork from February 24).
