Default Cranked combination spanners

I'm looking for a set of offset spanners in metric sizes. Ring at one
end and open at the other, with both ends cranked. This is for use on
motor engines, where access is sometimes tricky.

I'm sure that my Dad had a set once, but probably in Whitworth sizes.
This design seems to have disappeared from the stockists.

There are plently of cranked spanners with ring at both ends, and flat
combination types available, but that's not what I need.

Maybe they vanished along with Imperial sizes...
