Yes, you can absolutely get it under 5L/100km, and under 4L is not out of reach at all. I am down to about 3.8L/100km nearly all the time, ajd have gotten as low as 3.35L ... or about 70mpg (US).

Let's see more pictures!

See my car's mod & maintenance thread and my electric bicycle's thread for ongoing projects. I will rebuild Black and Green over decades as parts die, until it becomes a different car of roughly the same shape and color. My minimum fuel economy goal is 55 mpg while averaging posted speed limits. I generally top 60 mpg. See also my Honda manual transmission specs thread.
