03 VY Supercharged 3.8L
Was doing city style driving today and giving it a bit of a squirt to test out a mates new car too (see what his could do in comparison). Was at 13.2L/100km. Lowest city was proably in the 11's.

Freeway, that's another story, on the way from Sydney To Melbourne [via canberra] with about 200km stretch of on and off roadworks i saw it just hit 7.0l/100km. I want to do that run again sometime though without roadworks to see exactly what it gets!
