A friend of yours has always admired your car. You have now decided to sell it. Write a letter to your friend to ask if he is interested in buying your car. In your letter, – explain why you are selling your car – describe the good points and any bad points about your car – suggest the friend visits you to see and drive your car

Dear Shaun, Hope you are doing well. I am writing to inform you that I am going to sell my
car
as I am moving to Africa for my new job and transferring my
car
there would incur a lot of expense for me. I remember you always admiring my
car
and you wanted a same brand
car
for yourself as well.
Hence
, I am writing to inform you about selling my
car
. As you are already aware, I have kept and maintained my
car
in a very good condition and
also
not many miles are run on
this
car
as it is only 5 years old and used to drive to the office and back home. The good point about my
car
is its mileage. It is a very fuel efficient
car
,
hence
it will be very economical to use in the city. One concern with respect to the
car
is its servicing. For servicing, it has to be taken to a nearby city as its service station and spare parts are not available in the town. So twice a year, it has to be serviced from outside the city, but
that is
manageable I think. Why don't you plan to come and visit me and try driving my
car
yourself? You can come on any weekend, before the end of March as I will leave in April for my new job so I have to sell it before that. Looking forward to your visit soon. Best Wishes, John

To score effectively on your IELTS exam, you should make an effort to implement short concise sentences coupled with linking words.

Almost every sentence in your essay should have a linking word of some sort.
