And if you'd like to make wild carding optional keep your code the way it
is:

$query .= " AND `model` LIKE '".$_GET['search']."'";

And put a comment on the web page "Use the % for wild cards".

The thing about:
      $query .= " AND `model` LIKE '%".$_GET['search']."%'";

Is it will return many results if $_GET['search'] is very small like one
letter.

And bear in mind that there's could be a nasty SQL injection problem with that code if $_GET['search'] hasn't been SQL escaped in some way.
