I have a 04 Saturn Ion-2, quad coupe that has 44K miles and it refuses to start when the temp is below 32 deg.

At 35,000? That's crazy. But with an English car, anything is possible. Check out the maintenance schedule that came with the car.

Rover dealers charged around five hundred pounds for a belt change and service expect to pay one hundred and forty ish for a belt change
