I am surprised he has not added a Mclaren F1 maybe i will suggest it 
I'm sure he's thought about it, and he could obviously have one if he wanted, so the fact that he hasn't probably gives you an insight into his selection criteria. It would be interesting to hear his reasons though. 
Having seen his collection evolve over the best part of 20 years, I asked him a question last year to which I probably already knew the answer, i.e. why no Veyron? As I suspected, they just don't "do it" for him. I think for Peter it's the aesthetics as much as anything that makes him get the cheque book out, and in that respect the Veyron just doesn't have the visual impact of things like the Zonda or the Agera. If I were in his position (I wish!), I think I'd have the same view.
The arrival of the Aventador is no surprise, as he has traditionally always had the top of the range Lambo in his garage. I assume it's replaced the previous LP670-4 SV.
It's good news that there will be 3 track days this year, rather than the usual 2 - more chance for drooling over the cars.
Stunning collection, and thanks to the OP for posting the link.

Ferrari F40
Ferrari 599 GTO
Porsche Carrera GT

Ferrari 458 (Spider)
Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4
My own personal additions to my collection would be:
