Not sure who's making them, but for a toddler seat, take a serious look at the Recaro Young Sport. I've got a Britax Marathon collecting dust in my basement right now and am using 2 recaros.
They fit way better in the back of an E55, C63, and W208 CLK (these are the 3 cars i've had them in so far). The Britax takes up too much space and sits at a poor angle.

ok. i need to fit a graco infant, and 2 marathons across the second row of a GL. The seat MB sells is actually 2 inches narrower than the marathon so 2 of those plus the graco will fit.

I just went into my garage & measured the Marathon & the Recaro.
The Marathon is 3 inches wider than the Recaro at the widest point.
If you put 2 Marathons into the 2nd row of a GL with an infant seat in the middle, i have a tough time believing they will fit with ease. You should take into account how easy the Recaros are for buckling in the kids too.

We're also considering a booster seat soon and the Clek Olli booster seat seems to get lots of positive reviews.
We've used a Britax Marathon for our daughter and it's an excellent seat.
