The most I ever put in the tank was 89 liters and I paid 129Euro (about 1.45E per liter)  I still try to beat that result but recently I failed miserably when my car run out of fuel late night in the Alps (really sucks). I made about 35000 kilometers in my 40 Anniversary Murcielago in 1 year (which I don't have anymore because engine has blown at 35000km on the odo), I also made about 37000 kilometers in the Gallardo I have now (also in a year). This is total of about 70000 kilometers in a lamborghini (in 2 years), I believe I am one of the most frequent lamborghini drivers in the world with a big experience. I drive my lambos only on autobahns and I believe 80% of my total time driving time was with the speeds excessing 200kmph, if you calculate that the average fuel consumption during this time was 30 liters (which I really believe is more) it means that I burned 21 thousands liters of fuel

I'm in Canada so I am supposed to use metric as well, but when it comes to fuel economy the only thing I can make sense of is MPG.
From what I recall, the organizations that tested them stated the most thirsty model got around 9 MPG city and 14 MPG highway, (varied a little depending on the model.)
35,000 km in a year is quite a feat in a Lambo! You must have been living in the thing!
