mid 80's to early 90's. Do your cars run on premium or regular?

Our old family 190E and 560SEL both ran on premium.

:hijack: sorry about the highjack, I always wondered what would happen if you put regular or mid-grade in a premium car :dunno:

I think the only thing is that it may not perform better and it can just be a little rough on the engine.

That is what I think though and have no real facts to back it up.

my mom's uses premium. so did my dad's. I think with the higher end cars they all use premium unless they are diesel. I kn ow that even the 92-98 BMW 318's use premium. Not sure about the older 190E's though but am assuming they are premium as well.
