check your spark plugs and the emmision system. Cos I get about 16L/100km on my 2000 C230 kompressor.

29-40L. Omg. That's fuel gulping man.

Some time this whole fuel consumption thing can all go down to ones driving style. There times I drive my car like a formula 1 driver, flooring the pedal often for no reason on such cases my gas consumption is very poor. For instance when I travel from kaduna to maiduguri I rev my car so hard its hard for a car to go pass me all in an effort to beat time due to the multiple check point on that axis and I end up using almost 130ltr for a trip of abt 800km and it bad cos at most I shld use jst abt 90ltr. But in town on days I put my car in 'W' mode and drive like a 'grandpa' I get a very good gas savings. But on days am feeling lucky and 'pocket bold' I jst hit the 'S' sport button and all hell let lose!!!!!!!.
