I use 95 all the time on mine, as its the only thing Im allowed with my works fuel card! Always thought the Optimax thing was a bit of a con tbh.
BUT I went to the ring this weekend and filled up with 98 RON Super (or 100 RON Shell V-Power where they had it) everytime and you could really feel the difference - after a couple of tanks it was quieter, tickover was much smoother and engine pickup from 2k was instant.
Im back to using 95 during the week, but if I could afford it I would use Super everytime
(anyone every used octane booster?)Matt
