Haven't voted as I too am in the process of acquiring an x5 but my A6 Quattro ran more smoothly, pulled away better and was more economical on shell v power so once the x5 is here I will be using a premium fuel

I have never owned a vehicle worthy of 99 ron fuel until now, however according to my scooby owner friend, your car needs to be mapped to the fuel you use, so I imagine the x5 is mapped for normal unleaded, however I could be wrong.  My friend had his scooby mapped to murco super as in our rural area this was the most available, being a fair trek to the shell garage and tesco not yet stocking Their 99.
