You are right!

especially in the British dialect as I said

and I mentioned that some people say they found it used in some books

but in academic speech, It's incorrect

so "I've a car" can be used sometimes even it is academicly not correct
but "He's a car" is definitely incorrect

You're right, we can get the meaning form the context
but see this sentence

I ain't has not any moneys

we can get the meaning from the context even it's grammatically wrong

The role of grammar is that it helps us to get the meaning from context as easy as it could be

so this sentence which is grammatically right

I do not have money

you get the meaning easily

It is right to some extent

It's like saying

It's not important to have a good car
the important is driving well

In my point of view: the more grammar knowledge you get, the more well your language gets, including speaking abilities.

I asked my Friend and he has been living in America in Ohio State For Two Yers and still There
And i told him what do you think About This Sentence

What does mean =he's a car
he told me that he has a car
Cuz it doesn't make any sense when you say that its meaning =he is a car
when you want to make it for him you can say
his car

I told you That I'm not sure 99% But the 1 percent still Glimmer of hope

سؤالك مذكور هنا :

شوف الرابط هذا, وفيه يجوز ان يكون الجمع من غير s الجمع (ترى أنا أول مرة أدري عنه الحين) :
