Time to upgrade my Cobra methinks

I was happily trading getting a few credits here and there and gradually upgrading a few things. Then I started to get interdicted by bigger and tougher ships, so I upgraded the weapons, (just a bit) but then all of a sudden the Mostly Harmless NPCs became competent and the Pythons fangs grew sharper and I found myself getting seriously damaged, but now....

Now I have been given a real mauling by a Dangerous Dropshipand it didn't take long for me to have 30% hull left and time to get the heck out.... The next trip, similar scenario, and just now a competent Python with goodness knows what on his hardpoints and I was down to 30% again, and he was outturning my Cobra quite nicely, booted away but it was touch and go,

So what do you reckon I should be upgrading first, Armour? Power Plant (if I can find one) FSD (already upgraded to a C4) Power Supply thingy (that is a C) or better weapons? Have turrets on the small hardpoints and Pulse Lasers on the larger hardpoints. I tried cannon on the smaller ones but they were as good as a chocolate teapot :eek:

So what do you guys suggest?
 
I'm holding off upgrading anything until a firm confirmation is given on whether there'll be a wipe on 16th Dec. Currently I'm going on the assumption of "Yes", hence not really "playing", more like "goofing around".

Reason being - my Cobra now costs only 92 CR to rebuy if I get blown up (due to the added fuel scoop). Otherwise everything's stock equipment. If I keep upgrading my insurance is going to keep going up.

As it is now, with only 92 credits insurance, I don't mind getting blown up goofing around.
 
I've already upgraded EVERYTHING and now looking for MORE upgrades... always need MORE POWER!!!
So I'd have to recommend (and apologies if this is a bit fanboi :)) upgrading your paint-job :D
