Default Please spend my money.

Right, i have a Nikon D40 with unstabilised 18-55 kit lens. Sigma 70-300mm apo dg Macro f4-5.6 non stabilised. and a manual focus Nikon 50mm 1.8 prime.
Jessops afdn flashgun.

I have upto £1500 to spend on a new camera and lenses, i want to keep my existing camera and lenses so the camera and lens must be compatible with my existing d40 and lenses (focus motor in lens). I have been leaning towards a d5100 over the d90 (i know the d90 has a pro layout) as i prefer the movable Lcd and exellent high ISO performance and better sensor, with a stabilised 18-55 kit lens £530 and the Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 os dg hsm £900.

The problem i have with my kit is slow lenses very poor in low light without flash and a 2.8 with vibration reduction will go a long way towards solving the problem also my d40 is showing its age now.

What would you buy in my situation (mainly candid people photography)
Thx in advance.
