If I remember correctly, those deep marks were on a few that year. To my eye they look odd and remind me of stretch marks. Many people didn't like them and returned them. If you don't mind the texture of the marks and plan to keep it, go for it. But if you think you might want to resell at some point, bear in mind some people may think it's a "flawed jacket".

Hi - I have seen markings like this on motos before, i think it just depends on whether you like the look of them? Personally I don't, I think it looks like a flaw and as gazoo said, I think you'd struggle to resell if you didn't like the marks when you saw them IRL.
there's a 42 from a lovely seller on eBay?https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/233617080509

Thank you so much @gazoo and @mere girl for your super helpful advice! I knew the experts could help my dilemma ;) Many thanks as well for the hint on the moto size 42 on eBay. I'm looking for a black in size 40, in case you know about one? Have a lovely Friday!

Here are two different ones. I've purchased from them before without issue. HTH!
