I get about 800 odd kms from 50 litres on the highway, and roughly about 650 or so in my city driving, but in Newcastle thats not as bad as, say, Sydney. And I always have the aircon on. I don't drive like a little girl, but I don't thrash the thing to an inch of its life either.

How much boost?
800k's from 50 litres HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!! Then again it is a 1.8 so that might be the difference...
I get about 720km from my 2.0L on the highway, around 450-500 in the city and easily 580-600 on the mixed cycle which is my standard cycle each week. On my latest trip to Sydney I averaged 7.84L/100km running at a speed of pretty constant 115km/h pretty much all the way, bursts of 120km (at least that's what my speedo said... ) so if I averaged less then that, say 100km/h, I'd see prolly a lower amount again, closer to the 7 mark.

Most of the little girls I see on the road are thrashers, lol
I can't believe you're getting 800km in the ST on highway driving! Most I've ever got was 680, although I wasn't being overly cautious with my speed once I entered NSW.
