A window regulator would probably be the least of your worries, do more research before you decide.

Lots of issues with these.Apart from gearbox problems there are the inlet manifold swirl flap actuators that break at around £500 a side (there are 2).Window electric regulators are a real problem if they both have to be replaced with the modified variety,you could be looking at £1200 to fix them.Not a cheap car to fix.

At 80k miles, a new gearbox looms..

Run away.
