I don't think that can be true. All the models I have had have had steel tailgates, including 90, 91, 92 and 93.
If they were aluminium they'd be much lighter, and would need different struts and probably catch/lock.
It's true though I think that the later design are less prone to rust - may be because of better window seal,or perhaps just being younger so haven't started yet.
