How long HT Leads.

I know it sounds a nit-picking sort of question but what lengths should HT leads be? I bought a set of silicone leads off ebay recently and they turned out to be main lead 48cms long and the other four 45cms. The ones on the car were; main lead 35cms, two at 28cms and two at 33cms. The measurements include caps. The longer leads look untidy in my opinion. I have seen, in a photo somewhere, a sort of clip to keep them together and photos of recently restored cars with long bright orange plug leads which seem to fill the engine bay.
