I had a second hand D90 this time last year which broke and I sold on to a friend with the kit 18-55 lens on, I'm looking to buy another camera and want to stay with Nikon as I have access to some lens through said friend. I'm not sure if I should get another D90 or get a newer camera with better ISO ability as I will be taking photos in fairly poor light most of the time (night sky, and lots of underground stuff).

I have around £300 to spend on a body any suggestions, stick with a D90?
 
The next closest (new) camera to my budget seems to be the D3200, any good? It looses some functions and internal focus motor but I assume it will still take better photos than I'm capable of. Second hand D5100 also seem around that price range, what's better?
 
The D7000 is just out of my price range , The D90 I had before was nice until it broke but it was my first and only Dslr so I don't have anything else to judge others by. What did you mean about the image quality?
