    A battery being a bit low is going to struggle in the winter. Get a new one.

    at a guess ......battery or starter motor...
    if battery isnt up to much then it will be hard to start with the colder weather just amplifying the problem,

    Id bet its the battery. Last year mine did that and the very coldest day of last winter finished it off. A lot of batteries will be failing now the temperatures are going to such extreme lows.
