Why is "o carro meu" not accepted when "o carro dela" is? What is the rule that puts "meu" - in the following order - " o meu carro"?

Yep, but most of the time we use dele (his) and dela (her) to distinguish when it is 2nd and 3rd person (seu, sua (your) - also acceptable for the 3rd person singular.
