Silworld, if your car currently runs 14" rims it should have 175R14 tyres fitted: look at the sidewall and you'll see something like "175/80/14" and a letter, there might also be "88T" or "91T". The 88 and 91 are tyre load limits and not critical at this point.
The 175 is the tyre section in millimetres, the 80 is the profile and 14 the diameter in inches. Virgos are 15" diameter and would need tyres with "185/70/15" or "195/65/15" to keep the speedometer reading correct-ish. The "195/65/15" tyres are a better fit on the wheels.
There are several threads-worth of advice about wheel/tyre combinations for the 240 on the forum if you need any further info.
