Vehicle must be a VW, engine can be a conversion of another type. I understand there are many more factors, if there are any significant ones, add them to notes.

I will start it off

MPG 29.94 country
L/100km 9.44 country
Vehicle VW 1975 Kombi
Engine 2.2 Subaru EJ22
Fuel delivery Stock computer and injection
Trans 4 speed manual 091

Notes

1972 S-Bug
Stock 1600cc twin-port
9-10 L/100km everywhere, freeway, city, traffic, thrashing flat-out in the hills, motorkhana/khanacross days. It doesn't particularly seem to matter how you drive, almost every tank averages between 9 to 10 L/100km.
Fuel is 95 or 98 octane, only BP or Shell.

Currently averaging zero because it's sitting in the shed with no carburettors on it.

VW T 5 transporter. 2.5 five cylinder. Best so far 970k off 70 litres diesel. Thats 13.85k per litre. As for the bug with 2270 don't know yet can't keep foot off the floor.

1966 standard bug 2332 idas 4.125 diff 1.125 top gear Bris-Syd-Bris with a little drag action 330lts of v power.moving house so exact milage of that trip I am unsure but would be around 1700 klms.it seems that is 5.1 lts per 100

look out for the flying pigs

2002 polo 1.4 16v petrol (98 octane only) highway (110kph) =6 lt/100km. town = 7.5 lt/100km

74 Kombi
2L ,mild cam, 44 IDF,s
From what I can work out it gets somewhere between 20 and 25 L/100km at an average speed of 95km/h on the highway fully loaded with family,camping gear etc.
Running on BP 98

Went from Newcastle to port macquarie at Easter used about 50L

72 super with racing shift knob
1600, mild cam, blue spark leads
32 36 weber on custom manifold
std drivetrain

Consumption based on throttle usage
on/off swith 12L/100Km
on first butterfly 10L/100Km
Fuel: ULP 91

2011 golf blue mo manuel 1600 diesel av 1300kms / 55 litre tank

My Beetle 1968 semi auto 4.375 to 1 diff ratio
1600cc single port engine - standard
extractors and new SVDA distributor with Pertronix kit
Brasilian WEBER single throat carburetor
electric fuel pump

I have no idea what fuel consumption I get.. lol
from 2005 to 2011 with bosch 009 distributor
You could see the fuel gauge going down..

since fitting the SVDA single vacuum dual advance distributor
the fuel consumption has been great and the car goes much better.. I use 98 or 95 octane fuel..
I believe I'm getting maybe double the mileage i was getting before going by the fuel gauge..?? I have also replaced the fuel hoses.. maybe a leak although never ever saw one..??

runs like a hairy goat on 91 with ETHANOL...??
loses heaps of power?? well it did before the extractors and new distributor.?? maybe I had ithe carby tuned wrong?? whether it still does I don't know.. I always forget to write down when I fill up...

Wow, all the Subaru bugs get such good mileage! It's tempting me over to the dark side....

Also, @vwvic, hell's teeth! 20+ litres per hundred in a 2 litre Kombi! You would do better than that with a V8 in it!

That's the joys of modern fuel injection and 16 valves.

VW engines can get very respectable economy with modern fuel injection fitted but it's not a cheap exercise, especially when it's cheaper to fit a Subi engine which already has it standard.
