Which EPA to use?

Right, My Saab is slowly sipping its way through this tank (apart from one or two "TUUURBBBOOOO" moments)

Happily its at over 230 mles and still showing over 1/2 a tank- trip comp says 300 miles + range left.

Shortly I'm going to have to add it to my garage. The 9-3 WAS available in the US so it does have EPA figures available. See below.
Gas Mileage of 2001 Vehicles by Saab

The figures seem to suggest 26/28 on Motorway/Hway on Regular/Premium.

My question is

Which figure should I pick?

The car is run on 95 RON unleaded here, but the manual seems to state its mapped for anything above 91 RON

This is all so I just know the correct figure to put in the garage
information

Anyway, now back to some more
