Best fuel for Volkswagen Up - what would you recommend?

I have recently ordered a Volkswagen Up (your review was very informative) and was wondering what fuel (brand, RON etc) would you recommend?

The model is a Take Up with the petrol 60PS engine.

I'd still run it on Shell V-Power. This is not overkill, it has many long term benefits.
