Erimus get's the right answer. DB claimed 1M copies sold world-wide in an interview during 1989.
Q3. The Cobra Mk2 never flew. Why?

Judging by how they look, I would say that's because Viper took it's spot. (they are both de lacy right?)

It never flew because it was never built. It never left the design stage (according to the old Space Traders Flight Manual).
The Cobra MKII was meant to be the successor to the popular Cobra trading vessel, with increased cargo capacity and defensive capabilities. The project was ultimately a failure due to design flaws in the hull, as well as an ambitious design that was beyond the production capabilities of the time. The basic design was revived decades later for the Cobra MKIII, which slightly expanded the hull, both to fix its design flaws and give it extra cargo and weapon space.
hull design fault?
