Xenon, is it upgradeable?

A chum of mine is looking at a Xenon equipped Bianchi, the 2010 Via Nirone. I thought this gruppo had been discontinued for a couple of years?

Anyway, the question is whether the parts can be upgraded in due course, or whether any fundamental incompatability arises with the newer, higher end stuff? It looks to be 10 sp.

Many thanks.

    eBay - 10sp Record is still widely available!

    All Campag 10 speed groupsets are fully interchangeable, so no worries there.

    I'd give Xenon a wide berth.
    I've seen to many ergo levers brake on this model.
    Camapg have discontinued it from this year.
    Almost all other Campag 10 speed components will all work together.
