ParkingEye v Beavis
Mr Beavis parked his car at a retail park in Chelmsford. Notices posted at the entrance said that the maximum stay was two hours, otherwise there would be an £85 charge. Mr Beavis overstayed. The car park’s manager, ParkingEye, demanded the charge, which Mr Beavis disputed on the basis that it was a penalty.

The Supreme Court redefined the test for whether payment under a contract for breach is a penalty and therefore unenforceable. It no longer matters whether it is a genuine pre-estimate of loss but whether it imposes a detriment out of all proportion to contractual obligation it was intended to enforce.

ParkingEye’s objective was to deter overstaying motorists and so the charge was legitimate, even if it exceeded its actual loss.
