They're all pretty much identical in chemical composition. Don't overpay for the MB branded coolant, as there's absolutely nothing special about it warranting the premium price.

We have been using G05, there is also suitable coolant available from Penrite or Nulon in Australia. The MB standards have changed although for these cars it's fine.

Just look for the MB325.0 on the package.
