GL about 10-12l / 100km. Could be less if you had lighter pedal foot.. About GLT I'm not aware yet how much it consumes fuel... 98 octane costs something like 1.1 to 1.2 euros per litre so it's expensive.. 95 is a little cheaper but turbos like real fuel. And over 75% of that price are taxes... Crazy.
BTW: Which Novas are you talking about? Chevy or that Vauxhall thingie which is same as Opel Corsa in here I think.. There's a BIG diffrence.

nova = opel corsa (old style)
some people have spent silly money getting 600+ bhp into them. very quick, but very unstable
