The 180 can be good on fuel on long motorway or dual carriageway journeys, or if you keep the revs below 3k. :)

Urban mpg: 20.0
Extra urban mpg: 41.4
Combined mpg: 29.7

Owning a 180 means you don't take notice of mpg. It is one of those cars that when driven smooth will return +30 and when the horns protrude expect alot lower! I have no idea what mine does now but when I used it for commuting it averaged between 30-35 mpg on a smooth run with a few blats.

IMO if your hoping for it to be ecomomical, i'd stick with your 110 or get a 120 maybe, they go pretty well. If your buying a 180, i'd forget about the economy side of things for now. I put about 45 pounds of fuel in everytime i fill up and i get about 285 miles to the tank. Thats high 20's in MPG. Thats mixed motorway and town driving.
