I personally get 13L per 100km with an average speed of 100km/h this is
running CIS with a knock sensing ignition from an 86 Jetta GLI set to
+12BTDC, CO is 1.5%  Other people who run CIS-E (Electronic version of my
CIS) get 11L per 100km and one of my customers with OBD-1 Montronic gets
between 10 and 12L per 100km

10L / 100km = 24mpg (OK, not quite 25mpg)
11L/ 100km = 22mpg
12L/ 100km = 20mpg
13L/ 100km = 18.5 mpg
