Not at all. If your needs are covered what's the issue?
The idea of having a family size car and a wee runabout doesn't compute for me. I don't think a 'city car', in so far as they're still available, is actually much cheaper to run and insure that something like your wife's Jeep. Our 2 door diesel 205 back in the day cost pretty much exactly the same as the BX it shared the drive with. Give or take 150cc they were identical in the engine department.
We had two Berlingos for a while, then a Berlingo and a Roomster.
Other than towing the caravan the current Fabia can cover any duty the 'lingo might take except for towing the caravan. It's been out to the Western Isles twice and Normandy last summer on that basis. If we visit kids in NE Wales or Liverpool we go in the Fabia.
At one time this swapping around was to save racking up all the miles on one but as I'm by far the main driver now and I prefer the Fabia it's just choice.
Welcome to retirement by the way.
Is this 100% no more work or are you planning on doing stuff to pay for holidays and the bikes under X+1?
