It is called a Parsons Trial Special. It seems that in 2012 the car had an accident and overturned

That's right - one point to you.

I don't know much about the car, but it has FWD so I guess it's Fiesta or Focus based. It competes in typical British trials events.

FWD? I'm not so sure, see picture below. RWD i'm afraid. Powerd by "classic" Ford 1600cc Kent engine.
