This is a rare old girl; a 9000CD with a 2.3L turbo engine.
They only sold a few hundred of these in the UK but I expect they sold more in the US where big saloons are more popular and hatchbacks almost unheard of.
Because they sold so few parts are starting to get tricky, particlarily the lights which were unique to the CD.

It's actually a very nice car to drive and fast too. If you had a new 9000 against a new 9-5 (and you weren't interested in cup holders or the sleeker styling) I think you'd choose the 9000. They feel way more solid and planted on the road.
