What fuel can I use in a hybrid older model

Just use standard 91 unleaded. Not 100% sure if the hybrid petrol engine is compatible with ethanol, but in saying that, E10 is really a false economy anyway. It is slightly cheaper, but has around 10% worse fuel economy compared to 91. It also doesn't store well either, so if the car is off the road for a prolonged period it can wreak havoc in the fuel system due to its hygroscopic nature.

I avoid using E10. It's just another attempt by the left wing loonies at saving the planet by shoving this down our throat and taking away our choices.
For example, there are a lot of service stations that have stopped supplying 91 and only have either E10, 95 or 98, so if you are budget conscious, you have no choice but to use the E10, if your vehicle is compatible, which is exactly what the loonies want you to do. If it isn't then you are forced to pay for 95 or drive off to find another petrol station. In some instances you can't.
So in actual fact, you are being forced to buy E10 so they can continue perpetrating the false economy that it is. If you don't want the E10, then you have no choice but be bent over a barrel and pay the extortionate price that 95 and 98 can be, so put simply, just use 91 and have no part of the E10 nonsense.
