For what it's worth my sister, who runs a Nissan Micra on a budget, has also started using super unleaded since the E10 debacle because she wasn't getting enough miles out of each fill with the new stuff. She definitely only does this for economics and she moans mightily about having to use super unleaded in a Micra.

If i use Sainsburys (now supplied by Esso) in my 760, i'm lucky to see 16mpg. If i use BP Ultimate, it's ~22mpg or a lot more on a run - a recent run gave me nearly 40mpg at motorway speeds unbelievably!
