The first track and first 3 cars as can be seen here (http://www.liveforspeed.net/?page=contents).

TBH the site doesn't make it clear what is available in the demo and what isn't.

To get the demo, you just download the full version of the game. Until you 'unlock' the extra S1 or S2 content you just have the demo content. As Bob showed on that page, you get the XF GTI, XR GT, and XR GT Turbo cars, and the Blackwood track with the demo.

When playing in single player or multiplayer, when you are in the garage, simply click on the word 'car' and you are given a selection screen.

You have downloaded LFS already right? If not, here (http://www.liveforspeed.net/?page=downloads) is the download page. You want to download the full version.

You modify the colour inder the Colours tab, it should be near the left. Play with teh sliders there.

Depends how you look at it. Any dirt cheap wheel is likely to disappoint, I'd recommend saving and spending the cash if you're going to get into this seriously.

Check out E-bay for force feedback wheels too , FF wheels give a much better racing experiance than non ff wheels IMO :)

I found, when I was waiting for my wheel, that a joystick was a good controller for LFS. The thumbsticks on gamepads and controllers are so short that it's really difficult to be as accurate as you need to be, when driving quickly with other cars nearby.

Keyboard and button steering and acceleration/braking aren't ideal either.. steering in isn't supposed to be an on-off switch. The sim is written with a steering wheel in mind as the controller of choice, and those of us who have a wheel (most of us, I'd guess), would never go back to anything else :)
