Fuel consumption - Trikes

[Barn owl]

I am still at the pre-training stage of my trike "career" and trying to obtain as much information as possible. Answers to the following questions would be appreciated:

I understand that fuel consumption would vary with model, engine, flying style, altitude and of course weight. But what are the maximum and minimum fuel consumption that one could expect in various situations?

I have a Rotax 503 DCDI, Aerotrike spirit15 wing, aeros prop, at the coast and tend to fly with the wing in abit. I get a surprisingly consistant 13l/h consumption.

I fly an Aquilla II with a 503 and an NC prop and tend to get 12-15 l/h. Interestingly I used to fly with a Kiev prop and got a slightly better fuel consumption for some reason.
