Foreign transaction fees

in Credit cards
Hi
Looking to change my Credit Card at present. I pay off the card in full each month and use it mainly for the purchase of diesel, cause I live close to the border of Rep Ireland and go over to fill up (works out about 20p litre saving).
usually put on between £300 and £400 a month between mine and the wifes car.
They don't take debit card over there, which is why I use a credit card.
Credit Card I have at present charges a foreign transaction fee, usually about £2.50 for about £70 fuel. Kind of defeats the purpose now of going over for cheaper fuel.
As I pay off the full balance each month, I'm not interested in balance transfers, cash back etc.
Does anyone know of a credit card that doesn't charge a foreign transaction fee? Been looking now a while and haven't found one yet.
Thanks
