All I can say about the long term usage of low octane is I have had 8 cars that all "recommended" high octane. I still have 6 of them:

2013 S5: 51K - Owned since 2014.
2004 BMW 325Ci: 85K - Owned since 2013.
2003 Audi TT 225 hp: 110K - Owned since 2015.
2003 A4 1.8t: 125K - Owned since 2011.
1999 Mercedes ML 320 - Owned since 2000.
1984 Nissan 300ZX Turbo - Owned since 1984.

Bally, I feel your maintaining a fleet. I have 3 boys and am buying parts and getting my hands dirty all the time...
I've had a New Beetle Turbo bought new in 2001. Premium recommended. Look for it; Runs fine on regular.

In Troy, Michigan today Regular was $2.21 and Premium was $2.79 a gallon, sign me up for premium fuel.
