Personally I would stick to something with no greater than a 3x zoom range, with the possible exception of the EF 100-400 IS. You are just not going to find a lens that is "super sharp" (although there are other factors like contrast that affect perceived sharpness) in a 10x zoom. I would consider something like the 70-200/2.8, a proven performer in either of its versions. Or the 100-400 IS, although I'm not sure I'd call that a "super sharp" lens. I've seen many beautiful images from it though. Just my tuppence.

Assuming I can get the 17-40 I got off ebay working, I'll be needinfg a nice tele zoom. 50-500 70-300 or something like that. Forgetting about speed, what zoom would give me the best results? I'd like something that's super sharp and well built. I've looked at opinions on the photo sites but very few seem authoritative. In one, my Tokina 24-200 is described as an excellent lens. But I see distortion and lack of contrast throughout the range. Anyway, any opinions are appreciated. I can only afford to buy this once!
