My first S. Driver Manual Macan S fuel is recommended “at least 95 RON/88 MON” with no Alternative recommended.
Assume that means you can use expensive 99 RON or cheaper Supermarket 98 RON, or even basic 95 RON
Any recommendations/preferences?

I use 95 with no perceptible difference to 98. In fact I get better consumption with 95 but that's just a factor of the routes taken after filling up with either.

I use ordinary 95 and it works fine. I've tried "premium" fuels but can't detect any mpg improvement.

As others have said, subject done to death several times over so I don't want to start it up again, but to answer your question, the manual covers all variants so I would always go by the sticker on the fuel flap since that relates to your car. But if 98 isn't available at any time 95 is fine.
