Avg Mileage

What should be the average miles per gallon i can expect from my 900 2.0 litre auto? It doesnt seem to return very good mpg, low 20`s at the moment. Anyone got any advice on how i can increase this?

All help/advice very much appreciated

Car is a 1996 model, with 130,000 miles on the clock. Runs pretty well ok, there doesnt seem to be anything wrong with it on that front.

I have a 2002 9-3 auto. Though my car isn't your year, it is a 2.0 liter. For my car, I have noticed the best way to get better gas milage is to accelarate and brake smoothly, keep up on service (oil and filter changes), don't drive above 75 mph, and engage cruise control on the hiway. Cruise is a very useful tool in getting a better gas milage number. Using cruise returns 26.5 to 27.5 mpg for me. I recieve good mpg numbers during spirited driving...21 to 22 mpg.
