I'd stick with green stuff (Prestone, Zerex, etc.).  Have heard of problems 
mixing different types/colors, up to and including gelling of the liquids.  If 
you were to install, you'd probably want to flush all evidence of any earlier 
type of AF before changing to a different type.  Some AFs are for iron blocks, 
some for aluminum and some--like Prestone--say 'for all engine types.'   Plus, 
green AF is available pretty much everywhere, and MB stuff may possibly only be 
sold by dealers and requires payment of your first-born.
