Just filled it with Total 97 as im still running it in, last fill was premium 95 and averaged 29.6 mpg (calculated for brim to brim fill) on my daily commute so not too bad considering i have to go into and out of a main city over the river which is a bottle neck.

I used to put 95 in before the remap, but since then I've been using 98 only. I did try 95 once and there was a really noticeable difference in power. I can well believe the 30hp drop your acquaintance mentioned.

I wonder if 99 is better than 98 "performance-wise"...considering the parameters of the car are set for 98..... :huh:

Car only done 300 miles. Did a 90 mile round trip today on A roads and some twisty B roads sticking to the speed limits. Got 40.1 mpg using 95 ron which I'm happy with.
