Firstly id like to appologise to the poor CMDR i dragged 500lyrs to Sothis this morning, i thought it was a little nose heavy, couldnt see you honestly 
and the guy in the sidewinder coming through the grill as i pressed boost, im sure your rebuy wasnt that much
So, last night i finally make Duke rank and went and scrapped my conda ( which i absolutely hate, its horrible in every single way ) and forked out for a cutter. Then spent several hundred million upgrading it and several hours visiting engineers To anyone currently grinding their way up the ranks for one of these ships - trust me - its worth all the hassle. Its speed is incredible for its size, mines boosting to 420 and cruising at 340. Put 6A shields on to accomadate the extra 256t cargo rack, full weapons load - 2 x beam lasers and rest multi-cannons. shield boosters, chaff, heatsinks, mines extra large fuel tank.. it jumps 30ly empty and 24ly full (576t atm) and has a range of around 220ly before needing juice ( not maxed out the engineering stuff yet, ill be able to get more speed + range over the next few days ). A word of advice though the first time you take it out, this thing hates stopping!! And i mean it REALLY hates stopping! Stations, planets take it slow and you need full power to engines otherwise it just wont change direction, almost caught me out, wondered why it wouldnt do as i told it then saw i only had 2pips to engines. Beut to fly and a real cash machine. Thinking of buying another and fitting it for exploration.
GL peeps.
