Volkswagen BA Tavara-auto – Finnish registration class for closed VW vans, 62 to 130 kW, 1,890 to 2,461cc, 1,743 to 2,810kg kerb weight
The Finnish registration class BA Tavara-auto denotes, in the Traficom register, the closed box van (BA) among goods vehicles (Tavara-auto); the Volkswagen models listed here state engine capacity directly in the type name, ranging from 1,890 to 2,461cc. Stating engine capacity directly in the type name was common practice in Finland for imported vehicles and replaced the internal VW type codes otherwise used.

The register lists 6 versions rated at 62 to 130 kW, of 1,890 to 2,461cc from four- or five-cylinder engines, kerb weights of 1,743 to 2,810kg, gross vehicle weights of 2,505 to 3,500kg, lengths of 4,710 to 7,035mm and widths of 1,840 to 2,200mm.
In Finland, Volkswagen vans of this class were common delivery vehicles for trades, the post service and couriers; the spread of capacity, weight and length shows that both compact T3/T4 vans and larger bodies are listed under the same registration class. The comparatively wide power range of 62 to 130 kW suggests that both simple diesel versions and more powerful variants are grouped under this class.
When buying: check for corrosion on the load floor, sills and lower door edges, typical in Finland's road-salt climate, the condition of the turbocharger and injection system, the clutch and brakes after use under load, and the seals on the rear doors; spare parts run through Volkswagen and the Finnish commercial vehicle trade.
