Agree with the comments already made.
If the starter motor is good and if the battery is decent then the car should start easily at all times.
Stress testing the battery first might the a good idea if that passes muster, then the starter need attention, always assuming the wiring is OK.
A friend did recently ask me to look at his starter because it was poor but did tell me that it did not need brushes because he had already fitted new.
What he did not tell me was that he had undercut the commutator like you would on a dynamo
.
So I had to skim the com down to bring it back to normal insulation at the com surface.
Replaced brushes again of course
It now works well.
