Nikon Lens upgrade (18-55/55-200)

I am in a situation where I have a Nikon Coolpix p510 Bridge Camera (superzoom!) but now hardly use it since i got my nikon D7100. Do I keep it or sell it?
I use the d7100 a lot now anyway.
 
I started out very similar, but with a D3100. Anyhow, changing lens was a real PITA, so I sold my 18-55/55-200 and bought a used 18-200 VR. It was one of the best things I did. Now Super-Zooms have a lot of trade offs and are generally not considered all that great for quality photography. It's not as bad though in my opinion for people starting out as one would be made to believe. I have actually gotten some decent shots with it. Anyways, I have since upgraded to higher quality glass and the 18-200 VR is used mostly for light traveling. We do a lot of boy scout camping and I like to pack it instead of my 28-70mm 2.8 and 70-200mm 2.8 VRII for example. If something happens to my 18-200 VR, no biggy, but you'll see a grown man cry if something happens to that 70-200mm 2.8 VRII LOL
 
Ok. After a lot of trying out different lenses. I am now happy with my new setup of lenses. See my signature! I have kept the old 18-55 nikon f3.5-5.6g VR lens but have now sold my Coolpix P510 and the Sigma Lens to make way for new equipment.
I am very happy with the clarity of the new lenses now.
