Difference depends on what you have

You don't say what you already have. The 2.3 full turbo (200HP) is pretty quick, especially the pre-'94 ones with the lower ratio gearbox. This is not as quick as a manual Aero, but comes close.
If you have a 2.0, then you can expect quite a difference by upgrading to a 2.3T, but especially to a manual Aero. The Aero also has stiffer suspension and the now-legendary seats.
For performance, you really want the manual (225HP) unless you really need an auto (200HP, with a lower torque limit then the manual 200HP engines).
When you're talking "K" and "M" plates, I assume you're in the UK. (For those unfamiliar with the UK registration system, this is late '92 to early '95). You could do a search on CarSource (link below). Read carefully, though, as you might turn up some matches with non-Aero 9000s with Aero wheels.
