There are 84 tracks and the game supports multiplayer with up to four players.
This second installment comes with four game modes: an arcade mode for casual rally fans, a championship mode for people who want to compete against other rally cars for a title, a trophy mode, and a time trial mode.
It features 16 different cars in three categories: World Rally Cars (Peugeot 206, Hyundai Coupe, Mitsubishi Lancer, Toyota Corolla, Subaru Impreza, Ford Focus, SEAT Córdoba, Škoda Octavia), 2L kit-cars (Peugeot 306, Citroën Xsara, SEAT Ibiza, Renault Megane, Vauxhall Astra) and 1.6L kit-cars (Citroën Saxo, Peugeot 106, Nissan Micra).
A number of bonus cars can be unlocked as well by completing certain modes, such as winning the European or the World Championship.
In the arcade mode you race against three opponents on the race track; whoever reaches the finish line first after a series of laps wins the stage.
However, the main goal in a stage is to reach the next checkpoint before the countdown timer stops.
Several stages form a level, for which you receive a total of three credits.
Every time you fail to reach a checkpoint before the time runs out the race stops and you can use a credit to restart that particular stage.
If there are no credits left, the entire level must be restarted.
The trophy mode is a bit different.
While winning a stage is still done by beating three opponents directly on the race track, to claim the trophy you have to register the best overall result, calculated by summing up all the stages' times.
The championship mode is designed after the FIA World Rally Championship, where drivers compete for points.
The European championship is divided into eight rounds, while the World and the Expert championships each have twelve.
Every round has two (European, World) or three stages
About Nintendo 64
The Nintendo 64 (1996) stuck with cartridges after most competitors moved to CDs, trading longer load times for near-instant game access and durability that's held up well over nearly three decades. N64 cartridges are largely intact and functional today, and while common titles are affordable, several late-release and multiplayer-focused games with smaller print runs have become firmly established as valuable collector pieces.
Gamevaro tracks V-Rally (1997) for Nintendo 64 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding V-Rally (1997) to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This N64 release dates back to 1997.

Market insights
Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for V-Rally (1997), suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common Nintendo 64 titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
