My 2.3 tends to use 8.4-8.9L/100km depending on what I'm doing. I haven't seen 9's since I started using 95 octane. It depends a lot on what you do though, driving where I do I nearly always use less than the combined ratings.

It's not brilliant, but I'm not unhappy with the economy - compared to the other four-cylinder petrol wagons that some friends and family have, it's a decent bit heavier, is a visibly larger car and has a lot more interior space for not much more consumption.
