It's their car.

Well, 'their' means that it belongs to someone, like,

  • "That ball is theirs" or
  • "That is their house"

rather than:

  • "That ball belongs to that person" or
  • "That person owns that house"

The teens put their clothes on over their bathing suits, even though their suits were not completely dry.

The teachers asked their students to turn in their term papers at the beginning of class.

The band students practiced their marching until their timing was perfect.

NOTE: "Their" refers to the noun immediately after it if used before a subject.

However, in a complex sentence you may need to specify a noun before the second use of "their" to make it clearer.

WRONG: The teachers welcomed the new principal and then told them to line up along the wall.

(Who is "them" in this sentence?)

RIGHT: The teachers welcomed the new principal and then told their students to line up along the wall.
