Here's a clip from Fifth Gear (24 Sept) about 95 vs 98 (or so) RON fuel.
Apologies for the FLOG.

Interesting Video.
I have often wondered the same.
It would be interesting to see a comparison between 91 vs 95/98 in a car that "requires at least 95 ron petrol"... ie my 407.
I have often wondered if I can run the car on 91 safely,

I don't believe Fifth Gear (or Top Gear, for that matter) viewers are the slightest bit interested in economy. It just wasn't part of the brief.There is a big hole in the testing as it did not include fuel "economy".
They said for E85 to be equivalent to the 91, it needed to be sell at about 40¢ a litre less to make up for the lack of milage.
To use E85 on a 2CV, requires a special tuning needle to get it to idle and run.
Fortunately, being a democracy, you can use whatever petrol you want.
