It all depends on how the car runs. The timing, valves, carburetor or Fuel Injection, vacuum dist all have to be working right. You can get from 20 mpg to 30+mpg on a stock motor. If memory serves a 73 carb'd standard Beetle got 19 city 27 highway. Hot VWs is getting mid 30s mostly highway with a lot of mods. A lot of people report 30+ highway, but I would say a stocker in great shape would do good to approach 30 highway, dual ICTs can get you to 30+ highway. But a poorly tuned stock can have half it's original fuel economy. It all depends.
