In which VED band is my new Audi A4 Avant?

I have just read your newsletter containing the new VED rates, but I am a bit puzzled about my car. A couple of weeks ago I purchased a new Audi A4 Avant 1.8 TFSI 170, 5-door manual, but am not sure if the rate is £140, £175 or £200. The CO2 on the V5C is 141g/km. Could you please supply the required info?

141g/km just puts you into Band F, which was £135pa last year and will be £140pa for the next tax year. Had it been 140g/km the rates would have been £120 rising to £125.
