I would have to agree with Rene. I have had two VIP's that were replaced after they were over 20 years old and they both were still running. I currently have 3 VIP 6's, thus far the only problem I've experienced was the fluid level sensor malfunctioned once.

Having said that, you ask for a comparison between 2, the Leica ASP300 vs. Sakura VIP6 and, again, price could decide but from the quality and durability VIP6 "wins hands down", at least for me!
