I compare the results with the project requirements. I am sure that I will love my new business field. To be honest, I grew tired of my previous business field. There is one more thing to tell you. Do you recall? You used to tell me that I should buy a new car. I bought a new car yesterday. It is an Audi A6. I admit you were right about my previous car. It was definitely in bad condition.

task response
You answer all three parts. Add a little more about why you left and how you feel about the new job. Use more natural words: say "job" or "work", not "business field".
coherence and cohesion
Your letter is easy to follow. Use a few more linking words, such as "also", "because", and "so". "Do you recall?" can join the next line: "Do you recall that you told me to buy a new car?"
tone
The tone is friendly, but "I am writing this email to inform you" is too formal for a friend. Start with "I have some news" or "I wanted to tell you".
task response
You clearly explain the job change, describe the new work, and give other news about your car.
coherence and cohesion
Each paragraph has one clear main idea: old job, new job, and car news.
tone
You speak directly to your friend and end the letter in a polite way.
Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
