I have a cheap and cheerful set of crow's foot spanners that can attach to any torque wrench when required.

Also have two cut down sockets of different sizes that can be slipped over any normal spanner if the crow's foot can't get in there.

Why would you need that for a Rover 25 ?

I have a similar one, sold as a "refrigeration torque wrench" for doing the pipe nuts. Bought it as a made-up-German-sounding-name Chinese special, was reasonably accurate as I remember when tested.

Always intended to add more car-based tooling to it, but TBH have never needed to.
