March 13th, 2007: Centaur Media has launched HeadlineAuto.co.uk. It is the latest in a series of online resources for UK journalists provided by leading publishing and information group Centaur Media Plc, and follows HeadlineMoney (launched in 2002) and HeadlineProperty (launched January 2007).
HeadlineAuto offers UK motoring journalists fast and efficient access to up-to-the minute press releases and industry news and comment provided by subscribing companies and associations, and has already won great acclaim from UK journalists for its extensive coverage of the press days at last week's Geneva Auto Show.
HeadlineAuto also contains a directory of images and case studies in addition to comprehensive and fully searchable automotive data supplied by the world's leading automotive data supplier JATO Dynamics.
Other features include weekly reviews of the motoring sections of the national newspapers and the key specialist press and ready-to-use and copyright-free news stories and interviews with the leading executives in the industry.
Headline Group Publisher, Andrew O'Kelly, said: "The launch of HeadlineAuto is an exciting extension to the Headline Group. Building on the success of our other two sites, HeadlineMoney and HeadlineProperty, HeadlineAuto cements Centaur's position as the leading provider of industry specific press information and data to the UK media. We also hope to extend the Headline brand into other key industries over the coming months."
