I cannot access the car configurator on bmw.de.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open
http://www.bmw.de/de/produkte/automobiles/index2.html?model=5series&brand=sedan
2. Click on "Fahrzeug konfigurieren"

Actual Results:  
The link does not work. In the javascript console, an error is displayed each
time you click on the link: "the BigCookie has no properties".

Expected Results:  
It should open the car configurator.

The same applies to "Infomaterial bestellen", "Händler suchen" and "Probefahrt
vereinbaren".

The code for the link for the car configurator is:
<a onfocus="this.blur();" onmouseout="self.status = ''; return true;"
onmouseover="self.status = 'Fahrzeug konfigurieren'; return true;"
class="color666666-003399" target="_self"
href="javascript:writeBmwModel(cookiebrand,count3,cookiepath);
location.href='http://ecom.bmwgroup.com/DE/BMW/de/pages/vse/index.jsp'">Fahrzeug
konfigurieren</a>

If I manually enter http://ecom.bmwgroup.com/DE/BMW/de/pages/vse/index.jsp, it
works.

On the front page www.bmw.de, they have also got a link to the car configurator.
It's slightly different, and it works.

<a onfocus="this.blur();" onmouseout="self.status = ''; return true;"
onmouseover="self.status = 'Car Configurator'; return true;"
class="color666666-003399" target="_top"
href="http://ecom.bmwgroup.com/DE/BMW/de/pages/vse/index.jsp">Car Configurator</a>
