Rear door mounting of spare wheel on Wizard

Could somebody please tell if my observation is correct, that diesel Wizards have rear-door mounted spare wheels but petrol ones do not?
My interest is because as a mounatin biker I have found that a spare-wheel mounted bike rack (eg from Thule) is MUCH better than a tow-bar mounted bike rack, as the latter prevents opening of the rear door/tailgate to get at other stuff when carrying the bikes around.

Gen 1 Wizards had the spare wheel. Gen 2 after 98 did not.
Gen one could be 3.1 diesel or 3.2 petrol but petrol ones are rare in NZ
Gen 2 3.0 diesel or 3.2 or 3.5 v6 petrol
