What fuel for my C-Class?

The handbook in my Mercedes-Benz C-Class advises to use premium type unleaded petrol. However two other owners with similar cars say they use standard petrol. What should I use?

A big improvement on the previous C-Class. Feels well built and robust. Very comfortable and refined. High quality ride. Good CDI diesels.
