The cars from the 2004 model year also received a revised interior with new seat materials and a new dash design incorporating climate control on the 180 (optional on others). The MG ZS ceased production in April 2005, on the collapse of MG Rover (See John Towers: Rover), and the rights to make the car were soon repossessed by [[Honda]], who owned the rights to the original design from 1995.
 
[[Nanjing Automobile]] of [[China]] bought the remaining assets of MG Rover in July 2005. [[SAIC Motor]] had previously acquired some [[intellectual property]] rights from MG Rover, so the Chinese Government merged the two companies together, which resulted in the rebirth of MG as [[MG Motor UK Ltd]]. They then designed a new model in China, announced in 2009 as the [[MG 6|MG6]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.autocar.co.uk/News/NewsArticle/AllCars/239604/|title=MG6 to go on sale in the UK|last=Holloway|first=Hilton|date=2010-01-29|work=[[Autocar (magazine)|Autocar]]|accessdate=2011-03-26|archive-url=https://wwwweb.webcitationarchive.org/6As7KGGXA?url=web/20120929222844/http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/mg6-go-sale-uk|archive-date=2229 September 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref>
