Fixing & Upgrading The Interior Of The £200 MK1 MG ZS
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
- Yes, i really paid just £200 for this MG ZS with only 56,000 miles on it!
Today i am tackling a common complaint on the MG ZS - saggy & detached door cards and headliner...But whilst i'm sorting these issues out, i'm going to add a bit of a 'Johnny style twist'...
Enjoy!

Wow, once again you never cease to amaze ! the amount ot detail work you go into to improve your cars, it's no wonder you seem to sell everything you deal in. Can't be many people out there who are willing, or able to do the resto. you do on older cheaper cars. well done.
Thanks very much…I think I’ve upset a few viewers with that headliner though!
Stunning work mate the door cards look amazing.
Cheers Dave. It’s been a bit of a mixed reaction here in the comments so far, but I’m stoked with the results and it’ll no doubt help to find this one a new home…can’t please everyone though! Thanks for watching 👍
Perfectly paced delivery, you absolutely crushed it on the headliner and door cards, so to speak! I know it was more work than anticipated but it actually looks therapeutic. Looking forward to the next episode 😊
Thanks very much! I do enjoy this kind of work. It certainly is a change of pace compared to welding & spraying etc!
heheh! "Crushed" it!
Absolutely first class job! Those door cards and roof lining fabric changes have transformed the car completely. Looking forward to seeing the next episode. It’s going to be like new when you’ve finished.
Cheers Alex, I’m really looking forward to showing the finished product!
Always great content Johnny. Thank you.
Thanks for watching
Great job turned out nicely! Another one saved 👌
A really interesting video Johnny, high quality repair.so great to see these old cars given a decent new life. Thank you so much.
Thanks Michael! I do love saving an underdog!
Super work. Gutty, time consuming, but Lord what a result. And you managed to make a very good movie out of it to boot! Solid job as always, well done and thanks for sharing 👍👏👏👏
Thanks very much!
Interesting vlog again Johnny 👍🏻 i personally liked the door card material upgrade straight off as it looks so much better than standard. I didn't know if i would like the roof liner material but once fitted inside the car, i thought it was an good choice & another nice upgrade. I have 2 roof liner repairs to do myself on both my cars as its a common problem on Golfs. I have some old stock acoustic carpet left over from my days of car stereo installs & looking to use that. Inspired again seeing this today. Look forward to the next vlog. All the best 👍🏻
Cheers Andy! It’s certainly been a bit of a ‘Marmite’ episode so far but I genuinely really like the finish! I’m glad to hear that this video has inspired you to deal with your own headliner…in my opinion a dropped headliner is virtually unbearable! Best of luck with it!
Great work. As usual from you. Thanks for taking the time to upload it all.
Thank YOU for watching!
Love the roof lining.. reminds me of my Nan's sofa 🙂
😂 not exactly the look I was going for, but a win is a win I guess!
Splendid job! Lucky person who is going to buy this pretty car.
Johnny, when you put that crushed velvet on I was like oh my god that will look awful, but once it was in the car with all the fixings back in, it actually didn't look that bad! Good job with the door cards, I see so many cars online for sale with saggy door cards, just shows with a bit of patience and flair how you can improve a car interior!
It was always going to be a bit controversial but it does look really decent in the car! I’ll try and showcase it in better light in a later video too but I’m glad you’re enjoying it!
@@JohnnyGetsCash yh! Looking forward to the next project!
Great work. Bringing it back to life!
Thank you! Lots more to come!
Excellent job. Door cards looks so much better. As for the roof looks good. Don't understand why there's a lot of hate. I think what you've done is a upgrade. Keep up the good work. 🙏🇹🇭
Thanks very much! I think once I can showcase the interior in better light more people will see what I see in the headlining! Still, can’t please everyone!
Great work
Is there no end to your talents Johnny? Well Done, yet again!
Cheers Charlie!
Good job, Personally if it was my car I'd put original style headlinear and door cards on it but to each therir own.
@michaelbradley4552 I disagree I think the roof lining looks good.
It was always going to be a bit controversial I think. I love it and know it’ll help to find this car a new home soon (instead of that old saggy, dirty unit)…watch this space!
You’re wife is going to go mad when she finds her curtain missing 😅. Loved the process. I thought you would have used the same material as the door cards. Including the sunroof shade. Great job
Generally I would have used the same carpet liner on the headliner however with the dark seats here, I think it may have been too much so wanted to keep it light grey…however light greys were a bit hard to find when I was filming this episode so I had to think outside of the box a little, but I’m very pleased with the results!
Stunning job as always.
Looks superb! Would definitely be interested in buying this car once it's done
Thanks, that’s a tremendous compliment! I do already have a potential buyer lined up however if you’d like to send me a message on Instagram so I have your details, I’d be happy to let you know as and when the car is ready / if available. Cheers!
I was concerned at first about the door cards but in situ they look great. Great shout!
It’s a really versatile covering material. I’ve used it in lots of applications and it always looks very smart once trimmed in, although I get that a lot of people who have watched this video may not be familiar with it so may think it’s a weird choice but I’ll try and demonstrate the finish better in a later episode!
Really good and creative thinking
there IS method in his madness you know, a car that`s been featured on you tube, although nowhere near being featured on T.V status, is ALWAYS going to fetch MORE than a regularly advertised car like for instance "autotrader", also all the TLC is shown in the video, so the rrp is going to be higher, clever guy, and i like your skill and professionalism...............
Thanks. I’m not sure how much value these videos add to cars but at the very least, they act as a solid point of reference for me to show potential buyer all the work that has gone into a car (even if it is just a cheapy!)
Wow much better great job there your always suprising me
Thanks. I'm glad you like the finish!
I love this, the car will look fantastic once done.
Thank you! I’m looking forward to showcasing the finished product!
Top work!! Well done buddy 👍🏻👍🏻
Looks great, a big improvement!
Thanks Terry!
Looking good, black headliner would have been a nice touch but I guess there is no room in the margin.
Generally I would have used the same carpet liner on the headliner however with the dark seats here, I think it may have been too much so wanted to keep it light grey...however light greys were a bit hard to find when I was filming this episode so I had to think outside of the box a little, but I'm very pleased with the results!
Excellent job
Great job, would you go black for headliner to match door cards? Still 100 percent better 👍

The roof card material looked so much better in the car, as for the door cards you were right the darker material looked great. I have a question though, What glue did you use on the roof liner? You used a tin glue on the door cards but a spray can on the roof I just wanted to know what sort it was. 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks. On the headliner / the carpet material for the doors I used a spray contact adhesive. I only used the thicker, liquid type of CA on the door cards themselves as I need a heavier bond there due to the deeper contours of the arm rests
You went as far as taking the head liner out which was the right call. I think you should have went a little farther and did the sun roof cover since it was right there and not much more work to fix it. In the end if your happy with it that is all that matters.
A fair point, maybe I should’ve done that 👍
I can't say the changes are to my personal tastes, but so long as it turns a profit, that's the main thing I guess.
Cheers Michael. That’s what it’s all about!
Johnny love this video where did you get these fabrics from?
Thank you! The material used on the door cards is 4 way stretch carpet liner which can be sourced in a wide variety of colours on eBay 👍
Nice job ❤
Mint!
Looks good 👍
Thank you
Good job Johnny! Just curious, how much hours did you spend on restoring all four doorcards?
Thanks! In terms of the door cards alone, I’d say to do all 4 is a couple of hours work 👍
I love your channel but the materials you have used in these 'upgrades' are absolutely vile!! I can see your point of it being a cheap car and not wanting to spend too much money on it but jesus christ this has been turned in to a car that would be sold in the autoparts section of a B&M!!
It’s impossible to please everyone, I know this. I’m really happy with the finish and know it’s a lot better than the original faded, stained and worn out material. I’m hoping that as soon as I can showcase the interior in better light (when the refresh is finished), many of the detractors will see that it’s not as bad as they perhaps originally thought!
I wouldnt have put that headliner in for what was a tidy zs thats not upgrading anything
I’ll try and show it in a better light in an upcoming video. It’s not as full on as you may think (also, I couldn’t source the correct spec material so it was this or leave that dirty, saggy old piece in there and I couldn’t live with that!)
@@JohnnyGetsCash no i get that man iv a zs and a zt so getting stuff is a problem
Roof liner looks awful door cards don’t look much better
Can’t please everyone I guess!
@@JohnnyGetsCash If you're prompting loser trolls to actually bother posting to try and knock you back, you're doing something right! They're not worth a second of your energy by the way, everyone can see them for idiots they are...
