E5 or E10 Petrol

Hi,

Sorry if this information is already listed somewhere, I have searched and can't find it...
I have a T reg 406 GLX with the 1998cc engine, first registered in March 1999.

Can I use E10 petrol or should I use E5?

The .gov website says:
Peugeot
All cars with petrol engines are E10 compatible since 1st January 2000. Older petrol models should continue to use E5.

But I thought the engine in my car was the newer of the 2L engines, and didn't change on 1st January 2000?

E5 is pricey!
Thanks,
morch

I'd be interested to hear if anyone else with the 1998cc engine has had any problems using E10?

Thanks,

Don't have one myself, but can't imagine anyone with a 2.0 petrol not using E10, given how expensive E5 is.
Maybe ask on the coupe forum http://406coupeclub.org/PHPBB3/
or peugeot forums https://www.peugeotforums.com/
