will my engine be OK running just under, or should I search further afield for better fuel!

I don't want to wreck my engine

To answer your question, your car will run great with 97 RON, on 95 RON the ignition timing will be retarded enough to prevent preignition spark knock so it will lose a little power & gas mileage.
