Abstract We introduce the 3-colour noncommutative quantum field theory model in two dimensions. For this model we prove a generalised Ward–Takahashi identity, which is special to coloured noncommutative QFT models. It reduces to the usual Ward–Takahashi identity in a particular case. The Ward–Takahashi identity is used to simplify the Schwinger–Dyson equations for the 2-point function and the N-point function. The absence of any renormalisation conditions in the large $$(\mathcal {N},V)$$ (N,V) -limit in 2D leads to a recursive integral equation for the 2-point function, which we solve perturbatively to sixth order in the coupling constant.
