What fuel economy should my BMW 525i Touring be returning?

Can anyone tell what the fuel consumption on my 1996 BMW 525i Touring estate should be? I am only getting 20mpg.

The official combined fuel consumption figure is 27mpg. Details of how you can check what economy you're getting can be found here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/faq/fuel-consumption
