CJ - sounds like you car really has a few problems...

I suggest you take the door panel off and have a look -it's probably a lucas unit !

TVR modified Lucas unit.

I think the motor is one of a Rover SD1

Check the motor earth connection, poor earth can cause slow motors - (same with the headlamp motors incidently!)

[sevans]

Check the felt sliding rails that the window runs in. They may be worn and need replacing. If they don't seem worn then try some silicone spray in the runners. Worth a try. Steve

another tweak for these is to remove the plastic end cap to get at the motor commutator ( brass bit that brushes run on) and clean it up so it's nice and shiny (brasso and then brake cleaner work well) this gives a boost to any ailing lekky motor.
