问题 From: Lisa Forsyth
To: Ben Rhodes
Subject: Buying a car
Dear Mr. Rhodes
    I am contacting you on the recommendation of my close friend, Dallas West, who bought a vehicle from you earlier this year. The car I own now — a 1999 Datsun 350 hatchback — keeps breaking down, so I am looking to replace it. I hope you can help me find something suitable at a reasonable price.
    While my Datsun 350 has served me well, I really want to upgrade to a larger vehicle. I am an events coordinator so I often have to transport audiovisual equipment and other cumbersome items in my car. Accordingly, I would prefer something with a lot of trunk space, like a wagon or SUV. But, at the same time, I’m concerned about the environment, so I’d like the car to be fuel- efficient. Finally, my experience with the Datsun 350 has taught me that older vehicles often have mechanical problems. This time, I want to get something more modern, even if it is more expensive.
    If you find any cars that may interest me, please let me know.
    Regards,
    Lisa Forsyth
1999 Jervais XTL, $13,000
    You won’t find a top-quality SUV for a better price than this. It comes with power steering, electric windows, a sunroof, a powerful sound system and a spacious trunk. It has a metallic silver exterior and trendy black leather upholstery. Don’t be fooled by this vehicle’s age. It is an ex-rental car that received regular servicing. It will outperform a car 5 years younger, guaranteed. Moreover, the Jervais XTL is incredibly cheap to run. It does nearly 15 miles per gallon, meaning it consumes 30% less gas than most SUVs. For a car that looks great, drives well, and won’t let you down, call Rhodes Motors at 03-778-909.
