The full list of how much you will pay according to the year and engine capacity of your vehicle can be found at:

Because the car is registered after March 2001, the engine size is irrelevant; the CO2 emmissions are the determining factor.

For vehicles registered after 1/March/01, the critical factor is the carbon dioxide emissions. The make of car and engine size are incidental, though petrol or diesel makes a difference.

If you are in any doubt as to the correct CO2 value for your car, you will find it on your V5 vehicle registration document (next to the engine cc on the old style V5's). And you can then use Stuartli's link to look up the tax rate.
