Scania BA Tavara-auto 2ov – Finnish register class for goods vehicles: six- and eight-cylinder engines from 11.7 to 12.7 litres, 265 to 353kW, gross vehicle weight up to 36 tonnes
"Tavara-auto" is Finnish for goods vehicle, or lorry; under the designation BA Tavara-auto 2ov the Finnish vehicle register lists these five heavy Scania versions. The model names state the displacement directly in cubic centimetres – 11705cm3, 12740cm3 and 12742cm3 – and the letter A on two of the designations marks the automatic-transmission version of the same engine. Scania traces back to the Vagnfabriks-Aktiebolaget founded in Malmö in 1891, which merged in 1911 with Vabis's Södertälje plant to form today's company.

The register lists 5 versions with 265 to 353kW, displacements from 11,705 to 12,742cc across six to eight cylinders, unladen weights from 11,350 to 23,700kg, gross vehicle weights from 27,000 to 36,000kg, lengths from 8,250 to 11,040mm and a uniform width of 2,550mm.
The span up to 36 tonnes gross vehicle weight points to heavy chassis for the Scandinavian market, where national rules permit higher gross weights per vehicle or combination than the EU standard; such Scania chassis serve as tractor units and heavy flatbed or tipper vehicles.
Buying used, check the operating hours and condition of the turbocharger and injection system, the clutch or automatic gearbox, the axles and brakes given the heavy loads involved, and the air suspension; spare parts run through the Scania network. The tightness of the cab mounts and the condition of the fifth-wheel coupling, where fitted, are also worth checking.
