Octane rating is just telling you how fast the fuel burns. The higher
the number the slower is burns. So high compression cars need
high octane so they wont ping and predet.

Here in the states octane is determined by averaging the results of 2 different methods of determining octane. I think one is called the "research" method, I forget what they call the other method. It's likely that the EU is figuring octane using a different method than our average, so you should be fine using the lowest grade that doesn't make the engine ping.
Lead, follow, or get out of the way
