I think you're mileage sounds about right. On my '86 900S, I see about 26 city and 30hwy - but my car weighs a solid 300 lbs less and has a smaller motor. I suspect on a new 1991 900 you'd probably see closer to 26-27mpg, but I wouldn't suspect anything wrong if that number was lower 10 years later!
You might try checking things like the plugs, wires, and related ignition components. I summarily replace them with upgraded units (total cost around $160) which does seem to help mileage quite a bit. You might also verify that your AMM and O2 sensor are in good shape. Assuming they are, that car is doing its best!
