Holden Barina 1995: What fuel should it run on?

...

I AM thinking of buying a mid-'90s Holden Barina GSi, but I have heard it needs premium fuel. Is this correct, or can they run on normal unleaded or E10? Is there anything else to watch out for in this model car apart from hard-driven or abused examples?

HOLDEN recommended 91 RON regular unleaded for the SB Barina GSi, so it would run satisfactorily on E10. The main issues are regular servicing and hard driving.
