Of course
But is there any such thing as Regular?
It varies so much from country to country, in USA they run on mostly 91
octane and in Europe we use nothing less than 95.
The higher octane fuels tend to give you better fuel consumption and better
perfomance, so just put the best fuel you can in
I try and use 97-98 in a 1.8T and the car prefers it.

Yeah, regular in the US means 87 octane. Most cars use that. I believe
at least 91 US octane is recommended for the 2.0T, but like you
mentioned, you can use lower grade but performance and fuel economy will
be affected, so it may not be worth doing after all.

I think the octane is measured differently in the US though, hence the
lower rating. Something like that anyway!
