A contract becomes illegally binding when it involves illegal activities, such as drug trafficking or human trafficking. For instance, if two parties enter into a contract for the sale of stolen property, that agreement is unenforceable in court because it pertains to an illegal act. Additionally, if a contract contains clauses that violate public policy, such as a non-compete agreement that excessively restricts a person's ability to work, it may also be deemed illegally binding.

If the consideration is in the past (e.g. you already gave up your car), that's not going to create a binding contract.
